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 want to sincerely thank Serenity Funeral Home for handling my mother’s funeral with such care, compassion, and dignity. During such a difficult time, their team was incredibly supportive and respectful every step of the way. This is the second time I have entrusted Serenity with my family’s arrangements — they also handled my father’s services in 2019 — and once again they were professional and thoughtful in every detail. I’m truly grateful for the way they helped us honor my mother’s life. 🤍”

“First, I would like to thank Julie for everything she did for my family. She was compassionate and thoughtful during such a difficult time. Serenity Funeral Home did a wonderful job caring for my mom. She looked as if she were peacefully sleeping. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. The atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and comforting, and the staff was truly there for me and my sisters every step of the way. Julie, you are the best—thank you so much.”

“Serenity Funeral Home & Cremation has assisted with two of our family members’ funerals and cremations. Despite going through a lot of grief, this establishment took care of the after death planning and arrangements so our family had time to grieve instead of taking on additional stress. Julie was pleasant and professional. She facilitated a space and time where the family could gather together and discuss next steps while in her office. We did not feel rushed to come to a decision during our appointments and the funeral service. Accommodations for us were also given at the cremation center and she was willing to make changes for us even after a decision was made. Overall, Julie and the team were very professional, compassionate, patient, and understanding throughout the whole process. We sincerely thank everyone who helped us during this time.”
