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.

“Death is something that no one can prepare for. My family is truly grateful for Minister Robert and the staff of Shalom Funeral Chapel. Minister Rob went above and beyond to ensure that my father’s final service was not only beautiful but that the process was seamless. Shalom Funeral Chapel provided top notch, personalized service. You can tell that each service is catered specifically to the needs and desires of the family and the departed loved one. At one point in the ceremony I got up to speak and Minister Rob sat right next to my mother to comfort her. It was second nature to him. This showed me that it isn’t about just business, this is truly his calling. He honored our every wish and everything was done in a professional and timely manner. Thank you for making the most difficult time of our lives so much easier. We are so grateful to you Minister Rob and the Staff of Shalom Funeral Chapel.”
