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.

“10000% recommend! We recently had a loved one pass away and I can honestly say JEN🏆is a rock star! She made the process so easy! She helped with every detail to make the service simple yet special! She provided us with the upmost respect and anything we needed she was right there to take care of it. Other staff members did great too! Everyone was very sympathetic and provided the upmost care. We are very grateful and hopefully we don't have to meet any time soon...but when the time comes we know where to turn to! Thanks again to all the staff ❤”

“Because they are nice to do my foster dad sister funeral services”
— Sean Miller
“Had my brother and dad's funeral here. Back in 2016 when my brother died, the funeral was lovely and it was beyond beautiful, when my dad died, (which was at the beginning of covid-19) the service was beautiful and it was filmed for all that couldn't be there due to social distancing etc. They took the time out to call us and ask for stories for the service and the wonderful lady that did our service felt so personable and like she cared. Funerals are a hard and uncomfortable time so it's much appreciated that they were there for us and to feel like they actually cared and Weren't just there because its their job. Thank you simplicity funeral home.”
