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.

“From the initial phone call, to the final service, R.M. Ferguson was nothing short of amazing. I called several funeral homes, and Rumeal was the only one that extended sincere condolences. Fortunately my family is not well versed in funeral planning thus we needed a lot of guidance. This was a very difficult time for my family as we lost our father unexpectedly but R.M. Ferguson made the experience so seamless. I know a time will come when we will need additional services and I have no doubt I’ll be calling them again. Rumeal - thank you! For everything 🤍”

“Hired them for my mother's services, we were very happy with them. They were able to accommodate us in short notice. I love that Mr. Ferguson himself was at my mother's funeral and went to our home to make sure our flowers were delivered. My father said he wants to have his services here now, when the time comes. Thank you to the staff for their care.”
