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.

“Patrick Halvey, Beverly Delgado and the whole Riverview staff are consummate professionals. From first contact through picking up the flowers, they were helpful, understanding, thoughtful and kind. They shepherd clients through the process of losing a loved one gently and with dignity. Our every request was met and our every expectation was fulfilled. If I could give them a sixth star, I would do so. Do not hesitate to rely on their services when the time comes.”

“During one of the hardest moments of our lives, this funeral home cared for our family with such patience, kindness, and compassion while honoring my grandmother, Clementina. From the wake to the funeral, every detail was handled with genuine care. Being able to play music that was meaningful to us brought so much comfort and made the services feel personal and full of love. I am especially grateful to Patrick J. Harvey, whose warmth and professionalism helped guide us through this painful time with grace. They truly made an incredibly difficult experience a little more comforting. I highly recommend them with all my heart.”
