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.

“We cannot begin to thank McFarland’s for helping us provide our mom, with a wonderful funeral service just the way she would have wanted it. They went above and beyond. The programs, the registry book, the picture blanket, and the coffin covers were of great quality and given to us at the end of the service. We will cherish this forever. We didn’t expect it all, so it was a wonderful surprise and shows the extra touch that they provide to ensure your loved ones are laid to rest in style. They were prompt with everything. Easy to communicate with and they were always very responsive. They were recommended to us by other family members, and we know why and we will do the same. Thank you sincerely for making this a memorable moment in our lives.”
