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.

What Families Say
“Caring, respectful, and full of honor and grace. That defines the service for my beloved husband. I was so anxious about planning a memorial service, but after just one meeting with Al and his team, I felt seen and heard. They brought all of my ideas to fruition and everything was flawless. Thank you to the entire staff for helping me and my family through a very difficult time.”
— diane pathieu
“Ikare Funeral/ Irina Kushnerova is excellent at her job. My grandmother prearranged the funeral so we did not choose Irina but if you are in the position of choosing, I cannot recommend her more highly. She is very skilled, knowledgeable and compassionate. She made a very difficult process the least painful for my family. If you are the eldest immigrant daughter especially, she will see you and work for you.”
— J Alexandra Gelzin
