Questions to Ask When You Call
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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“Acknowledgment and Appreciation I would like to sincerely thank Hughes Funeral Home for the outstanding care, professionalism, and compassion shown during the funeral services and preparations for my beloved grandmother, Dorothy Tiller. From start to finish, every detail was handled with grace and respect. My grandmother looked absolutely beautiful and angelic—so peaceful that it shifted the entire atmosphere of the private viewing and funeral. The care taken in her presentation brought comfort to our hearts in a way words can hardly express. I am truly grateful to every hand involved. Your presence, patience, and support brought a sense of peace to me and my family during one of the most difficult times in our lives. Thank you for walking with us through our grief and honoring our loved one with such dignity. With heartfelt appreciation, Keith Proctor Dotsy loving and devoted grandson”
