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
“From my first call, which turns out was outside normal business hours, Donald Lewis was the epitome of professional and compassionate but in a way that felt entirely genuine and heartfelt. My uncle wanted the most minimal services and Donald respected that and never pressured for more. I live out of state and Donald went above and beyond to not only keep me in the loop, check in and also advise me on delivery of my uncle's cremains. None of it felt perfunctory, every interaction was inbued with care and consideration. I cannot compliment Donald Lewis enough.”
— Gina Caputo
“Bob and John helped ensure our going home service was amazing! Their efforts allowed us to grieve and honor our loved one with no worries. We felt their genuine concern for my family and it reflected in every interaction with them. Thank you for your care and caring for my family.”
— Rebecca Cobbinah
“Don was a tremendous help through the process of planning my Dad's services. He practively provided information, contacted military contacts, coordinated family viewing at the crematory, followed up with us to ensure things were handled as we discussed and was very sympathetic to the every family member that had input into the services. Very pleased with the support Don provided.”
— Cathy Zeigler
