Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“Ayers handled all aspects of the cremation of our son with sincere compassion. During a traumatic and raw time when it was challenging to feel gratitude for anything, we were grateful our baby’s body and our grief was cared for by Ayers. We also recently had our two beloved dogs cremated through our vet, who used Ayers. Both of our pups’ ashes came back to us in very beautiful, tasteful wooden urns.”
— Angela Stewart
“I lost both my Step-Father and my Mother just two weeks apart. Ayers was incredibly helpful during this heartbreaking time for my family and went above and beyond to help us with their arrangements. We are so grateful for their compassionate customer service.”
— Marie Murray
“We were impressed by the professional, thorough way the staff handled our arrangement. They answered all of our many questions and were very respectful. It was a smooth and pleasant experience during a difficult time. I highly recommend using Ayres.”
