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.

“They handled my Mom's cremation a few years back. Very respectful group and open to let me say my goodbye before they left since she died VERY suddenly and at home (you know why this is big if you ever had someone suddenly died off hospice at home). When asked they sent me couple of pictures of her Tattoos.”

“I cannot say enough kind words about the amazing staff at Tualatin Valley Funeral Alternatives. My mother passed in the middle of the night. The staff who picked her up were so profession, kind and quiet. I was worried about the gurney fitting through our smaller than regulation sized doors and them possibly bumping, making noise and waking the kids up... but it was a needles worry. They came well within the time window they said they would. They were very quiet as to not wake up the house. They were so respectful with removing the body. They placed a beautiful blanket over her so we wouldn't have to see it, but they asked if I wanted to say one last good bye. Then Terry met with us a few days later to go over the arrangements and death certificates. He explained everything so patiently and thoroughly. The next day Margie got us our proofs and quickly helped us sort out the certificate! I really cannot stress enough how easy they made such a difficult task. I will forever be grateful for these kind souls.”
