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.

“I have never met such nice people in my life. My mom passed away, and being so young I’ve never had to plan a funeral service before. Kacey was IMMENSELY helpful to us girls, didn’t make any decisions for herself, yet guided us into the right direction, all while keeping consistent contact with us, even just to ensure we were doing okay. She cared so much for our well being and took such beautiful care of our mother, even painted her nails red for us upon our request, before we saw her. These people here go above and beyond to help you. I am baffled at how big their hearts are, and how much effort they put in to make a family feel comfortable in such an obvious uncomfortable time. Any time anyone needs a recommendation for a service to go through for their loved ones, I will never NOT recommend shimon. Kacey, we are so grateful for you and everything you do. You are such a beautiful person, we couldn’t have done this without your help. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
