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.

“I have been here several times over the years due to losses of friends and family members. Unfortunately my own mother passed away a few weeks ago. For what is guaranteed to be a painful process, the professionals at Urquhart-Murphy make it as painless as you can imagine. Mr. Murphy is a very kind man. But the person I need to give a huge thank you to is funeral director John Weeden. John was available for us via phone call any time we had questions, was extremely understanding and thorough with us through the entire process, and he helped us create a beautiful Celebration of Life. We could not have accomplished this without John! I cannot thank him enough.”
