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 made arrangements for my husband and myself 2 years ago. I was so comfortable with the whole process from start to finish. My husband passed January 25, and it was a very snowy day, and they were so kind and respectful. When I went to make the final arrangements the young lady that I worked with was so helpful and kind. She did a perfect job. I did not use the facility. But with what I saw they did a great job.”
— Amy Mayers
