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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“Went through East County Mortuary for my father’s death. Excellent service during the process. However, I picked up his ashes at this AAA Cremations location since it was closer. The door stated the business was closed at the time of my appt. When the woman came out to talk, she didn’t introduce herself or call me by name, she just looked at me and glanced over her shoulder to the counter and said, “There are some papers I need you to sign.” She came out with my dad’s ashes in a bag, showed me the permit and death certificate and walked me to the door. With zero warmth, compassion or condolences, she handed me my loved one and said, “Thanks, bye!” Like it was a door dash delivery. I have no words for how horrible that felt.”
