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.

“Altmeyer Funeral Home and Crematory – A Heartfelt Thank You Losing my son has been the most painful experience of my life, and during a time when my heart was heavy and my mind overwhelmed, Altmeyer Funeral Home and Crematory provided the compassion, professionalism, and support my family desperately needed. From the moment Greitcha, walked through our doors in my home and we then walked through the doors of the funeral home, we were treated with gentleness, patience, and genuine care. Greitcha and her staff honored my son’s life with dignity and ensured that every detail of his service reflected love, respect, and beauty. Their guidance helped us navigate decisions no parent ever imagines having to make, and they did so with grace and understanding. The service prepared was meaningful, peaceful, and truly heartfelt—a beautiful tribute to my son’s memory. I am deeply grateful for Greitcha, and the staff’s kindness, their professionalism, and their ability to bring comfort during such a devastating time. Thank you, Greitcha, and Altmeyer Funeral Home and Crematory, for helping us celebrate my son’s life with the honor he deserved. Your compassion will never be forgotten.”
