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.

“During an incredibly difficult time for our family, Mr. Arrington and the staff handled everything with compassion, professionalism, and respect. They coordinated the transportation of our loved one’s remains across four states and kept us informed every step of the way. What could have been overwhelming was made smooth and dignified because of their care and attention to detail. We’re deeply grateful for the kindness they showed our family and would highly recommend their services to anyone in need.”

“My family has been using Community Funeral Service since it was founded in 1970. Mr. Ross the founder and my grandmother, (Elnora), went to school together in the 30's & 40's. They remained friends all these years. When she passed in 2021 at age 91...It warmed my heart to see that he came to her viewing saying that he had to come see "Sis," (that was her nickname). Beyond all of that...They provide great professional service. Always friendly and do whatever they can to assist making the moment as easy as possible on the family. But most importantly perhaps....THEY DO EXCELLENT WORK!!!!!! All of my loved ones have looked SO GOOD being in their care 🤎 Can't forget the personal touch they provide...It means a lot in moments like these. I HIGHLY Recommend 💯”
