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.

“I recently worked with Ansu during the passing of a loved one and I couldn't have been more impressed with their level of service and compassion. The viewing they organized was truly beautiful, and the staff was so kind and attentive to every detail. They made sure that my family and I felt comfortable throughout the entire process, which made a difficult situation feel a little easier to bear. When we got to the crematory, their team continued to go above and beyond to help us. They guided us through everything, taking the time to explain every step of the process and answering any questions we had. They even went out of their way to provide us with additional services that we had not initially considered. One of the things that stood out the most to me was how they made sure to honor our cultural traditions. They took the time to understand our customs and handled everything with great care and sensitivity, which meant so much to us. Overall, I would highly recommend Ansu to anyone who is looking for exceptional funeral services. Their staff is professional, caring, and dedicated to making sure that everything is done right. Thank you for making a difficult time a little bit easier.”

“Exemplary in their professionalism in handling what can be a very difficult process. They made us feel comfortable understanding all of our options without any pressure and are communicative from start to finish. Especially helpful in providing advice based on their extensive experience when we requested changes and being flexible. We worked with Kevin, who treated us like family and made himself available to us at all times (weekends/evenings etc.). Highly recommended overall”

“if I could give zero star I would. please don't be foul by 9 reviewers who gave 5-star reviews. I normally don't like writing reviews. However, this place is the most unprofessional funeral home that I encountered. There are deceiving people working there, especially the funeral director who is a Fujianese lady, she'll be very nice in the beginning just to get your business. Long story short, on the day of the funeral she was screaming at the grieving family members for not knowing the traditional Chinese rituals. Isn't it why we hire you in the first place? limousine services, food preps for the guests and so on, everything is a mess. Most unprofessional and uncompassionate staff working there period.”
