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.

“I can't speak highly enough of the employees and professionalism here. Last July we put our nearly 19-year-old cat down and struggled to find a place we could afford to have him cremated and still keep the ashes. Jens was by far the most affordable. Mark handled the entire journey the way he would have if it had been a human and the fact that the cost covers an urn and a handmade bag took some weight off of a difficult situation. Now, almost exactly a year later, our wiener dog passed away at home. With $40 to our names and $70 for cremation I called desperate to figure out how we could use their service. The woman I talked to was so kind and willing to work with us. It means so much that we don't have to let our baby go and we can bring him home again. We will be using them for all future needs, both animal and human.”
