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.

“I took an inspo picture of a wedding bouquet to these lovely ladies and they gave me a realistic price. Even though the price was extremely out of my budget, I gave them my budget and they created a phenomenal bouquet that shared the color scheme and effect I was looking for! To top it off, I missed my original pick up window, and they provided a secondary pickup window when they definitely did not have to! I would recommend this adorable shop and wonderful mother daughter team to everyone!”

“Claudia and her team made my four recipients very happy, and their comments were that the arrangements were far better than my prior years' vendor's! Kudos to Sweet Thorns, and thank you!”
— Al Perrine
“I’ve now received and purchased two different arrangements from Sweet Thorns and I am very impressed with the quality, value, and service I have received. The flowers have been very fresh and both arrangements far exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this gem of a flower shop!”
