Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

“Unfortunately I lost my dad November 7th he was all the family my sister and I had left. I heard many great things about Brad here and how well he took care of some other important people that were also taken too soon. So I put blind faith in him and despite the heaviness of this situation he made this process easier. He was honest but very sincere answered all of my questions and even got to laugh in this painful time. My prayers go out to whoever needs to read this review but trust me when I say I couldn’t have trusted anyone else to do this for me.”
