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.

“My mother’s headstone was placed today. It is beautiful workmanship. Well done, and we are absolutely pleased. Also the guys that placed the headstones this morning, I don’t know their names, did a great job in placement and even talking to me about the information needed. I am so pleased, and my siblings are too. Thank you.”
— Mary Barnwell
“My late husband and my headstone is beautiful. They did an amazing job on it. A bulldozer on his side and 2 people fishing on my side.”
— Lynda Lansford
“Went by to see about a headstone for my sister, the young lady I talked to said it would be 6 to 8 months before they could have it together. I checked with a couple other places that could have it done in 6 to 8 weeks but was extremely higher. I went back and the same young lady remembered me. He helped me with what to put on it then did a computer sketch and it looked good. I think my little sister won’t mind if it takes a few months to see her chihuahuas picture on it.”
