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
“Bowman's Funeral Parlor were absolutely excellent to work with for our beautiful Mother's funeral. They were very helpful and professional while picking out her casket and planning all of the details. They went over and beyond making sure we understood all of the paperwork, and in planning of not only the service, but the gravesite afterwards. I especially appreciated Joe's professionalism through the whole process. I would highly recommend Bowman's to anyone!”
— Kyndal Fondren
“The staff at Bowmans were very kind and professional. They did a great job with my mom, making her look good for the viewing. And we’re very respectful of our time that we needed with our mom. They took care of the flowers that we had ordered. They got them to the church then to the graveside, then back to the church for the reception. They helped us pick out her gravestone, were very patient and explained everything very well. They helped us every step of the way.”
— Julie Marquart
“Several years ago we pre-planned my husband and my services. It was very easy and though no one wants to think about the end of life, when the time comes, the brain has a tendency to slow down. I didn't want our children to have to deal with too much. When LeRoy passed, Bowmans night ghost was so very respectful and gentle with us. Then we worked with Lori to plan the military service. She took care of so many little details that we could check off our lists. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
