“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

“My husband and I were new to the area, when he was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. He died after two and a half years of bravely fighting this disease. A friend had recently buried her husband and recommended Bennett’s. Honestly it was a good decision to go with them. They are professional and caring. They did not push any products on me, showed me available options. They guided me through one of the most difficult times of my life. And even now after reflecting on the experience, I am thankful for the care the Bennett staff gave to my husband, and the kindness they showed to me and my family.”
