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
“Our family is extremely grateful to Colin for the wonderful “above and beyond” care he provided in planning and coordinating the Funeral Service for our Aunt Ruth in May, 2025. He was always available and immediately responsive to our questions and he anticipated many before we had to ask them. We live in CA and Colin offered personally to do errands for us to save us time and worry and expense. He did not have to do that. He followed through as, and when, he said he would. All during the day of the Catholic Service—from before it began to the last minute at the gravesite—he was flexible and professional. He knew when to fade into the background and when to step forward to guide things along. (BTW—also very important to me—he did not ever ask us or even hint for us to please provide feedback. So this is partly our “thank you” to Colin for important work at an important time for our family very well done. Blessings, Chip Fisher”

“Brandon and Colin made the day of my mothers passing easier by their kindness and calmness. For that, my family will always be grateful. We met with Brandon regarding all of the funeral details and he could not have been more accommodating. He and Colin answered all of our emails promptly and professionally and the service and follow-up were more than we could have hoped for. They treated our mother and our entire family with such care, we would highly recommend them for any funeral arrangements you may require.”

“Brandon Jensen at the Belvidere Funeral Home was simply amazing and the service he provided during our family’s time of hardship could not have been better. Our Marcus family lost our dear mother and sweet sister-in-law only two days apart and Brandon was thoughtful, professional and took a genuine initiative to do anything he could to help us during our time of unimaginable grief. He helped us through every detail and every bit of the process of planning the family viewing, memorial service, the designing of both of our loved ones beautiful prayer cards to the music video. Their funeral home is beautiful and comfortable and the warm environment was inviting to all of the visitors who came to pay their respects. I highly recommend them and could not be more thankful for all that Brandon and the Jensen family have done for my family and I. Thank you so very much.”
