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.

“Laura and Micheal were very helpful and answered all of our questions, they helped us get everything that we had on our preplanning for our funeral. We had the urns and jewerly they took care for everything with respect. Laura went above her job and Micheal also went above his job being very helpful with the paperwork that needed to be filled out. I would definitely tell all of my friends and family to go there for the final destination of their loved one(s). Above and beyond an excellent job, they couldn't have been more helpful!”
