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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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 attended a wake at Bosworth's about 5 years ago for my friend's father. The place was disgusting. Peeling wallpaper, dusty, dirty carpets, run down. Obviously the owners are spending no money to keep it up...just taking grieving families money. If the place hasn't been totally renovated (torn down and rebuilt better) since then... do not use this funeral home. Your loved ones deserve better”
— Chris Howe
“I don’t know why it says this place is permanently closed. I know someone who works there and it’s open. Also, attorney James L. Bosworth is the person who has been running the place. They are open for business.”
— Virginia Esteves
“I called today to get some help and James Bosworth was very helpful. I appreciate his knowledge.”
