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.

“My family recommends Deware Funeral Home. Our brother passed away suddenly and the staff was patient, understanding, and empathic. The staff was always available to answer our questions and manage the services perfectly. Dan was so kind and we felt like he was part of our family. Thank you.”

“The team at Deware prepared and carried out an outstanding funeral program for our Mom. Every detail was covered as we have infrequent experience with this, without hard up-selling pitches. The items in the pre-printed funeral package were appropriate and we appreciate their giving us choices and flexibility, and very accommodating every step of the process. We were pleasantly surprised and appreciate immensely the memorial pamphlets for the services, the quality photo memory video, the portrait paintings digitally converted from the photo, and the printed thank you cards with Mom’s photo and a poetic expression inside. Because we had made the arrangements before the event the overall price was also discounted by a good amount. I highly recommend Deware Funeral Home.”
