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.

“Jay Parrack at Gray Brown Funeral Home is the absolute best! He went above and beyond with both of my parent's funerals (they died 2 weeks apart). He was able to explain everything well and answered all of my questions. He allowed us to use decor there to help make the services more cozy and less sterile! He even helped us take down the decor after the services! He's been a blessing in the midst of my storm! The other employees were very kind and helpful as well. I won't hesitate to recommend them or use them again in the future!”

“I recently pre-planned my final arrangements with Gray Brown-Service Mortuary. I did this to take the burden off my family when my Lord and Savior calls me home. They made it so easy to handle this task. I never felt pressured to do something I didn’t want and highly recommend anyone planning to finalize their arrangements. Gray Brown handled my father, my mother and most recently my sister’s funeral and the funerals were beautiful. They care about you and your loved ones”
