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.
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.

What Families Say
“I love old cemeteries and have been to over 200 hundred in New England, but I wanted to see how the designs and images on gravestones in Charleston compared with New England gravestones carved before 1800. I was surprised to see some of the typical skull with wings or soul effigy with wings that are so common in New England, but what surprised me were the number of gravestones with very finely carved images or likenesses of the deceased. If you like old gravestones, then this is a "must see" burial ground.”
— Sam Smith
“Designed by Robert Mills (buried within), this Historic church dates back to 1681. The graveyard was established in 1695.”
— StevePotts
“Circular Congregational Church dates back to 1681, making it one of the oldest congregations in the South. The historic cemetery is especially moving, full of weathered gravestones from the colonial and Revolutionary eras, marking the lives of early Charlestonians, merchants, ministers, and civic leaders. The circular church building itself (late 1800s) is striking and unique.”
