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.

“I first had contact with Lifesong in 2020 when they handled my Mother's cremation. I was extremely happy with their handling of the whole process. I recently set up a prepaid cremation plan for myself. Sara was very pleasant, and answered all my questions. It was a very painless process!! I would highly recommend Lifesong to handle all their funeral needs.”
— Jeffrey Cooley
“This was my second time in five years that Lifesong has taken care of arrangements. I would go nowhere else! Professionalism, efficiency, customer service, accuracy, caring, and affordable. Recently I worked with Belinda and she went the extra mile in shipping remains to my family’s ancestral cemetery in Pennsylvania so that it would be there and all arranged when I arrived. The other employees that I worked with were equally amazing, including the owners! With Lifesong, they made a difficult time in my life better. Thank you, Lifesong!”
