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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“I recently worked with Funeral Director Chaz Hammond to service the final needs of a client of mine. He was incredibly professional, efficient, and very understanding of the unusual circumstances. Millers was affordable and a great company to work with. I highly recommend them.”

“We are so grateful to Miller Funeral Home in Aiken, South Carolina, for the exceptional care they provided in arranging my grandmother's services. From start to finish, Funeral Director Chaz was compassionate, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful and helpful. Although I was delayed due to severe weather and traffic driving from another state, Chaz went above and beyond by extending the time that the chapel was open for scheduled viewing hours so that I could spend time with my grandmother. That act of kindness meant the world to me. His attention to detail was remarkable—he caught an unedited version of the obituary before it went to print, sparing us from a potential oversight during an emotional time. He also added touching personal details to the ceremony that brought comfort and warmth to an otherwise difficult day Most importantly, my grandmother looked peaceful and beautiful. The service itself was flawlessly organized, with every transition handled smoothly and respectfully. My family & I would recommend Miller Funeral Home, Chaz, and his team, many times over. Their compassion, professionalism, and heartfelt service truly made a difference.”
