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.

“From our first conversation with Michelle I knew we had chosen the right place to handle the celebration of life. Haylie was our director and we had the pleasure of Pastor Ed providing words of comfort and allowing all members of our family to speak, music enjoyed by our loved one and family. There was no rush , we were made to feel comfortable with all our friends and family. I would highly recommend Blunt Mortuary and Evergreen Funeral home services for anyone either planning a service unexpectedly or long term planning.”

“We are very thankful to Blunt for everything they did during a horrible time. Shelby the director was kind, compassionate, and made a hard process easy, and we are very grateful to her and all she did.”

“Went to look into services for a family member that passed. Wasn’t sure where to park per the main gate being closed. Eventually an extremely rude woman came out through the garage doors basically scolding us for being parked there. As I was trying to move out of the area I told the lady we were trying to get information for services. She paused and then again extremely rude told us we would need to call them. This woman’s behavior was not only extremely unprofessional but also cold and uncaring. People are hurting and overwhelmed during this time and doing their best to work through their grief while trying to go through the appropriate processes for their loved one. I hope this woman reads this and really gets a good eye opener of how she treated us this morning. I’ve never given a negative review in my life. This was absolutely necessary to make light of. Disgusted by this woman. Needless to say will note be using Blunt Mortuary for my Uncles services.”
