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.

“These people are liars. They didn't initially give me their price sheet, which they are required by law to do. The person that helped me was very confusing and hard to work with. She tried to blame the cemetery for her own issue, as opposed to just being honest. So they will hold my father-in-law for 11 days before we can have a service. I went and paid immediately so that we could move it along. Unfortunately they didn't do their part and then lied about it. So if I could give them zero stars I would. And I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy. They have no compassion, considering the circumstances. They created an already stressful situation more stressful. They should definitely not be in the business that they're in.”

“Great price considering what others charge. Rainbow is by far one of the most helpful and kindest people, I’m so glad she was able to help my dad and I through our difficult time.”
— Leiloni Pacheco
“We had a really terrible experience trying to work with this team. We were quoted a particular price and they tried to charge us almost double at the final hour. They did not provide the quote in writing which they legally were supposed to and instead waited until we had finished all the paperwork to tell us they wanted to charge almost double what their direct cremation price is. They also were very insensitive considering the circumstances.”
