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.

“Unfortunately, I have attended several funerals and memorial services here recently. This experience with Atkins for my dad was as calming and helpful as the others, especially when writing the obit and finding a pastor to conduct the service. Thank you for that. However, no one took pictures of the flowers or kept the cards from the arrangements that were around Dad's urn. In the past, Atkins did that so we could have them included the guest/memorial book. Thankfully, I took some of my own pics, but what if I hadn't? Other than that ... Thank you.”
