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 have voiced my concerns multiple times about the landscaping! Unbelievable amount of branches and leaves that have clearly been laying there for months, as well as half dead trees that are literally splitting in half, the wire type fence that surrounds the place is leaning and warped and covered with dead vines! I frequently visit my grandmother's grave and only once have I seen the landscaping crew, not working, but just sitting on their cart...for a very long time, then just drove off. It infuriates me at how unkept/neglected this cemetery has become. Staff is full of excuses, non caring, and unapologetic.”

“San Jose Burial Park is a peaceful and well-maintained historic cemetery offering a quiet place for reflection and remembrance. The grounds are clean, organized, and respectfully preserved, with shaded areas and scenic paths. Its calm atmosphere and historical significance make it a meaningful place to visit, honor loved ones, or explore local history in a serene setting.”

“The cemetery is kept clean, the landscaper/matinenance crew clearly do their job with pride. Everytime I visit my father I complain to myself about the lack of grass and abundance of dirt or mud and rocks or pebbles, but I quickly remind myself the City never promised me a rose garden, nor the greens from Augusta. My father was buried in October 1990, his headstone hasn't moved an inch, it isn't sinking or falling down. I owe that to the wonderful individuals who take care of the land and the management team who make everything runs smooth.”
