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
“Olson Funeral & Cremation did a wonderful job for my dad's funeral. Although it was a difficult time, Al Kremeier made it as easy as possible with their great care for my mom and all of us who survive. All details were handled professionally at their comfortable facility.”
— Debbi Erickson
“My dad had pretty clearly written down his funeral arrangements so that helped us tremendously. There are always going to be questions though because not everything can be preplanned. Olson’s did very well answering our questions in a very timely manner. Also on the day of the funeral, Robbie explained the order, and the how and why things were being done. We needed his explanations because we had never been responsible for burying a parent. I don’t think we would have made it through this without the help of Olson’s Funeral Home. We were never made to feel like our questions and concerns weren’t important.”
— Tammy Holbeck
“Robbie, Nicki, Marti and Mandy were very helpful with details for Mom's Celebration of Life Service. We really appreciated their detail and great suggestions. Our family has used Olson's for many family members. Always top notch and caring.”
— Ellen Ogg
