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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“On behalf of the Jaramillo family, I appreciated the care and professionalism of Romero funeral home, and Dicky Romero in particular. Dicky did our family a favor, on my father’s request long before his passing to personally handle all the arrangements from the church service to the gravesite ceremony. He respectfully recalled my father’s siblings, and other family members by name. He called me personally to go over details of the service to ensure that our most difficult day would be made less stressful. Many attendees mentioned how memorable the services were. Thank you Romero funeral home and Dicky Romero. Annalee Jaramillo-Kuidis ~”
