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 will definitely recommend their services to everyone. Through the entire process during such a difficult period, my loved one and I always treated with respect and kindness. If you’re lucky enough to work will Jill, she is amazing, compassionate, caring and will bend over backwards to help you through this. She really listens to your wants and needs. I cannot say enough kind words about her. Eric Smith”

“Outstanding team! I'd award more than 5 stars if I could! My sister passed away recently and all her family members live out of state. Long distance and with a 5-hour time zone difference, Rodney guided me through my uncharted waters with compassion, professionalism and expertise. He helped me with all aspects of the cremation, service, and columbarium interment, leaving no questions unanswered. He repeatedly went above and beyond to help me through the process. On the day of the Service, Rodney, Jill and Lisa were all present to ensure success while offering compassionate comfort and support to our friends and family. The slide show the staff put together with our pictures was magnificent! It truly felt like Rodney was a member of our family! I highly recommend Piedmont CFS to those in need of their services.”

Rodney took the time to explain everything clearly, never rushed me, and made sure I felt supported through the entire process. His comforting presence and genuine care made such a difference. Thank you, Rodney, and the entire Piedmont team, for your compassion and outstanding service. I’m forever grateful.”
