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.

“They were very patient and caring. They walked my husband and I through everything while my sister was on the phone via FaceTime with us. Before the meeting they gave some things I should bring with me that made the meeting a lot smoother. They took their time and explained what my father has already made arrangements for. He setup an account with the prior owner that transferred to Buhrig Funeral & Cremation. Ltd. Which helped a lot with the financial burden this could have had. I also want to say that the Gathering Place they offer for a lunch after the a service and before the burial service is a wonderful option. I was glad we chose it. We could have memorabilia placed all around the room. And the food was wonderful.”

“Unfortunately, we needed the services of Buhrig Funeral recently to take care of our dad who had passed away on Dec 5. As I am located in NH, and my brother in Mechanicsburg, they were generous and understanding in allowing me to help make decisions over the phone - they sent me pictures of caskets, vaults, guestbooks - making it seamless to choose these items. When meeting them in person - particularly Clint Black - to go over the details, they were kind, caring, understanding, and professional when it came to helping us make these tough decisions. Having grown up in Mechanicsburg, when it was Myers Funeral Home, I remember them being the same way. Which instills confidence when having to deal with a rough time in your life. I highly recommend Buhrig Myers to anyone - you will be treated with respect and caring.”

“We held my husband's funeral at the gathering place. What a perfect venue. All who attended loved the atmosphere. Just what we wanted. More than 1 person told me it was what they hoped their send off would be like.”
