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 recently used Simply Cremation and was thoroughly impressed with their service. Christy, the agent who helped me, was incredibly compassionate and went above and beyond to ensure everything was taken care of. She made personal phone calls when needed, and the paperwork process was seamless and easy to complete on my phone. The price was unbeatable, and Christy's kindness and empathy made a difficult time a bit more bearable. I highly recommend Simply Cremation for their professionalism, compassion, and affordable prices.”
