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.

“In the funeral business you must collect your money at the signing of the contract. Otherwise you will definitely not get paid. Its a known fact throughout the profession. So the funeral director is correct in talking money before picking up the body. That's why medical professionals and lawyers collect up front. Why give the funeral home a bad rap because you can't afford to pay prior to services rendered.”
— Edward Hatch
