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.

“Our experience with Hiers-Baxley funeral services was very professional. The staff were very nice. They made me feel really good. I appreciated it when they brought my mother to the car and seat belted her urn in the backseat. That meant a lot to us that she was safe in the car for her trip to her resting place. I would recommend this funeral home to everyone. We had a great experience with the staff. If you can have a great experience at a funeral home that is.”
