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.

“We retired from Colorado to the Tacoma area to be closer to family. We decided to make sure that our affairs were in order so that our kids would have less to worry about when it came time for our funeral arrangements. That was back in 2018. We chose Edwards Memorial and promptly took care of paperwork and payments. Fast forward to September of this year. My husband of 52 years passed away. The whole team at Edwards Memorial was so compassionate, supportive, and helpful to our family. We encountered a few glitches along the way, but Cassie and the staff were there helping and working with us through this difficult time. I highly recommend Edwards Memorial. Having a company that understands that people need help without pressure during a time when the family is pretty vulnerable is really commendable. They are fair in pricing with lots of options. They also check in with you after the death, just to see how you are doing and give you resources in case you need help. That ranks high in my opinion too.”
