Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“Fabulous maze of history, families, stunning memorials and an outstanding staff. A president us buried here. My friend took me for a tour in the snow. We saw deer and enjoyed the peace with strangers.”
— Hilary P
“My Grandmother's headstone was sinking and I asked to have it leveled again. I paid for the two headstones on that plot to be leveled while I was there. I tried to clean them but the soil was more encased around my Grandmother's. They leveled and the Albany Diocesan Cemeteries, Andrea Schneider | Family Service Associate sent me photos of the work completed. Was barely leveled so I requested a second try. She very kindly helped me with my request each time.”
— Deanna Kaebisch
“My husband and I had a very good experience. Lori Biskup was awesome to work with. She came across as a very caring person. She listened to our needs, offered suggestions and made everything easy for us. I would highly recommend working with Lori at St Agnes to anyone.”
