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.

“My grandpa past. He made prearrangements but going through everything was hard for my mom. Charles took excellent care of us and took special care of my grandpa. After the first time meeting him my mom was able to breathe knowing Charles was taking care of grandpa and everything else (with us of course). We could have not done it without you. Thank you so much Charles”

“My brother died in CA and I was lucky enough to have a friend there that told me about Miramar and Charles. I was able to make all the arrangements from NY online with Charles sending all the documents. Charles was very kind patient and understanding. He let me know about the laws and procedures in California and guided me through all the way. I highly recommend Miramar. Thank you so much for everything. Kathy and Magdy Elsibay”
