“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.

“I lost 2 brothers and called Bell Mortuary both times to handle the arrangements. If you've lost a loved one, I highly recommend Bell Mortuary. They took time to take care of everything for me. No excuses, no misunderstandings, no fussing over details. They continued to stay in contact with me during the entire process. Thank you, Karen, Elizabeth and Jeff.”
— Elizabeth Ferguson
“In November, I unexpectedly found myself navigating the death of my Father. I found Bell Mortuary in a search for an affordable place to handle his final arrangements. Jeff and his team were so responsive to me, and kind and compassionate throughout the entire process- even reaching out to check on me several weeks afterward. They were completely transparent with me about all the options and lent great assistance to me, making a really hard time a little less stressful. I’d choose them again.”
— Blaire Duncan
“The caring and compassion the staff have shown my family and me at this time of my father's passing has been more than we could have ever expected. The staff has treated us with respect and have given patience and grace. Could not recommend Bell and staff more. I thank them for all they have done.”
