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.

“Everything went perfectly; they respected our religion and provided us with a beautiful Catholic Mass. Grand Legacy Funeral Home helped us fulfill my mom’s final wish of resting with her parents in Mexico. Elver and his team were incredibly compassionate and maintained great communication with us throughout the entire process. While nothing can take away the pain of losing our mom, they truly eased the burden by handling the paperwork and ensuring she arrived safely at her final destination. I also want to especially thank the makeup artist, she did beautiful work, and my mom looked peaceful and lovely. Thank you for everything.”
