You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
Ask whether assignment is available for your policy and location, what fees apply, and what you must pay upfront. MedaSynq does not arrange assignments.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
Under the FTC Funeral Rule, funeral homes must give price information by telephone and a written General Price List when you visit in person. Federal law does not require them to send the list by mail or email. You can select individual goods and services and use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“From the time the two young men showed up to pick My Son up from our home. They were the kindest, most gentle human beings. The process was simple and adequate and every interaction I had with any employee was a 10 out of 10. Thank you so much for the kind and caring interactions. Definitely recommend your business.”

“When my husband passed away very suddenly and very unexpectedly, I didn’t know what to do, a friend recommended St Louis Cremation. When I called them, they were amazing. Their kindness, compassion, they understood my financial situation, and didn’t press to do more. I highly recommend them for your loved ones.”
— Deb Sullivan
“My husband had the foresight to prepay for his own cremation years before actually needed. It was a relief to me as his wife, because after the devastating loss of my husband, this was the LAST thing I wanted to deal with. Everyone was so kind and offered their support as I navigated this whole new world. I can't express how much it meant to me that all my husband's needs were prepaid and taken care of for me, truly the greatest act of love from him. The St. Louis Cremation Services team is a thoughtful, professional place and I recommend it highly as you navigate what you want done -whether it's for you in the future or a loved one.”
