Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“The Volk Leber Funeral Home in Teaneck provides first class service! I recently used them for my father's funeral and it was executed flawlessly, and with care and compassion. Kurt and team (Klis and Cosmos) were fantastic to work with. They were understanding, flexible and dedicated to making my father’s funeral truly special. Kurt also arranged for an Honor Guard in recognition of my father’s service in the Navy. I also used Volk Leber for my mother's funeral in 2019 and was impressed then, and still am 5 years later.”
— Lawrence Kominiak
“Kurt Larsen, funeral director, was very professional, helpful, and compassionate during our time of sorrow. He and his team (including Cantor Ellen) saw to every detail. Not one thing was amiss. I was very happy with the service, both at the funeral home and graveside. My father was presented for viewing beautifully. His clothing was perfect, including a perfectly tied necktie, and he was given a good hair and beard trim. It could not have gone better. My family and I are very grateful for a lovely send-off for my father.”
