Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“I never thought I would write a review on a funeral home, but the care and services that were provided should be shared. Mike and his staff showed nothing but care and compassion while dealing with the remains of my wife and our family. Every question was answered and every detail was explained, no matter how small and we were set at ease knowing that Ginny would be treated with respect... like she was a member of their own family. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!”
— Tim Larkin
“Kristina and the team at Crapo went above and beyond. The service was beautiful, and Kristina made sure to walk me through every step as this was my first ever service to have to plan. Would use them again in a heartbeat. Thank you Kristina and the Crapo team!”
