“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.

“We have had two family funerals in the past 5 years. Both times we were treated like family by Jeff Kandt. During these stressful occasions we were given great options and never pressured to spend more. This last funeral was the most difficult as we were unable to be there in person due to pandemic restrictions and once again Jeff assisted us and even went beyond acting more like a family member than a funeral director. This funeral home exceeds expectations. They are there for your needs. If you need a funeral home you can trust, who gives their best every time, contact them for the best experience under trying times. Thank you Jeff.”

“The funeral directors and their associates were very professional at this funeral home. I have been to three funerals here in the last five years. Each and every time I would highly recommend them for their consistency in professionalism in which they conducted themselves throughout the entire process. From beginning to end, things went without a hitch, even providing water for guests at the funeral home and also at the cemetery in the hot summer month of July. They put those closest to the deceased at ease by being so attentive and organized during one of the most difficult challenges in life...dealing with the death. Thank you!!”
