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.

“Rest Haven is a funeral home and cemetery. It has a full service chapel, a large reception room with a stone fireplace and three visitation rooms. The cemetery dates back to 1927 and is a beautiful piece of property with a pond and tree lined lanes. They do traditional funerals and cremations. The facilities are first rate and the staff is extremely friendly and very experienced. They listened to my needs and helped me with every step of the process.”

“Rest Haven in Hagerstown MD has been service to our family and the Church of God & Saints of Christ of Hagerstown MD since 1983. Their personal, comforting, and professional mannerism in our time of needs as well as pre-planned considerations has kept us using their services. We thank the owners and their staff for their kindness and their assistance always Pastor Mark A Guy & Family”

“Rest Haven is a beautiful cemetery, but it's sliding into decay since Mr. Ebersole passed. The trees are dying, many have been removed and limbs are always falling. There is worsening erosion behind the beautiful antique stone walls lining the Hamilton Run, which adds enormous historical charm to the cemetery. Yet no attempt is being made to preserve these walls and stop the erosion, even as it may threaten some grave sites. Unless management changes course, over the next decade or two Rest Haven will look more like a treeless golf course than pastoral manor grounds.”
— Tuckerman Lane
