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.

“C&G has been amazing to work with in our family’s most difficult time. Nina has been amazing, patient, kind, and sweet to us. She has answered every single question we have had.

“Lindsey helped with my mother's funeral service years ago at Crestview in Portland, last couple of weeks she helped with my mother in love service at Cole and Garrett in Goodletsville, TN. She was excellent in helping us plan the service. From the time we walked in till after the burrial service, Lindsey and her team was Top Notch.”

“Days before my father’s expected death, I spoke with Lindsey to see if our years before purchased plots and funeral services were in place. Years old arrangements so she had to locate our information. She answered the questions I had at the time. Once we were in need of Cole and Garrett’s services, words do not adequately express how kind and gentle she was with us. I called her my Angel Baby. We mostly knew what we wanted as a family. She said yes at every thought and action we had. I would ask her what we were to do next. She told me what to do. She led and we followed. The sweetest simple graveside service and burial. Exactly what we wanted to honor my father. My deepest appreciation of Cole and Garrett and their care for my family.”
