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 highly recommend Calhouns for handling the final arrangements of your loved one. From the moment the team arrived for the initial transfer through the conclusion of the service, my family was treated with genuine care, compassion, and respect. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, and nothing was overlooked. Mr. Jones the director, Alicia at the front desk, and Mr. Wilburn from the transport team each showed kindness and empathy that truly brought comfort during a very difficult time. Their professionalism and support exceeded our expectations, and we are deeply grateful.”

“It has been one year since my sister was laid to rest. Eric Jones was so easy to work with as well as the entire staff, even Calhoun made an appearance. Most who attended her service was very impressed with the professional job, as well as my family. I'll be back for my great uncle home going September 6 and hopefully I'll see my limo driver who was first class and made the mood very light. It's important to have staff who are so engaging, thank you. Elisha Harris”
