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.

“Three years ago Jeff and his staff did a wonderful job on my moms funeral, little did I know that two years later, I would be going back to plan my husbands funeral. I knew Jeff and his staff would do a wonderful job since we had used them in the past. I can't thank them enough for their kindness and compassion while working with us after my husbands death. The service was beautiful. Thanks again to Jeff and his staff.”
