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.

“Jennifer at Dracut Funeral Home was truly exceptional during one of the hardest times in our lives. I’m the cousin, and even so, she kept in touch with me directly and responded at all hours, no matter the time. She went above and beyond to ease the stress on the wife and children, handling every detail with compassion and professionalism. Everything looked beautiful and was thoughtfully taken care of, and her communication throughout meant more than we can say. We are incredibly grateful for her care and kindness.”

“Jennifer and team were wonderful to work with. Their compassion and attention to detail are unmatched. The building is beautiful and there is plenty of parking. We first met with Jennifer about a month before my dad passed away knowing the day would come soon. We also wanted to set ourselves up for when my mom passes away. She attentively listened to ALL of our questions about my dad and also my mom - someone who still has many years ahead of her. Jennifer helped us navigate the church service, cemetery, mercy meal and more. She also had some nice suggestions to add small details to honor my dad's personality and interests. All communication was easy and prompt. My dad passed around 4:00am and from those wee hours in the morning when her team came through his services and beyond, Jennifer was there for us. My dad is currently being "stored" as it is the winter and we know Jennifer will guide us through the spring burial. When my mom's time comes, we will go straight to Jennifer.”

“Jennifer provided truly exceptional service, from helping us plan a funeral trust to guiding us through each event with compassion and professionalism. Her knowledge, care, and steady guidance went far beyond what we ever expected. She helped us personalize every detail with genuine respect for my father, ensuring that everything reflected his life and legacy. She advocated for our family and made sure we were able to schedule the services we needed, during a very busy season close to veteran's day. She oversaw everything, from the smallest touches, like selecting the perfect prayer cards, to meaningful details such as arranging custom engraving and embroidery on the casket to honor my father’s service as a veteran and police officer. She also coordinated an honor guard and special military honors, which created beautiful and deeply meaningful tributes to his service. We could not have navigated any of this without her. Jennifer offered thoughtful advice on the process, helped us make choices that felt right, and handled the set-up for each event with care. She even found the perfect places to display my father’s photos and memorabilia, creating a warm and personal tribute that meant so much to us. Jennifer was a true gift during our family’s most vulnerable time, she was patient, kind, and exceptionally knowledgeable. We are deeply grateful for the comfort and support she provided when we needed it most.”
