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.
“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.

What Families Say
“Recently my father passed away and 16 years ago my mother passed. Dad had chosen Carpenter Memorial Chapel to assist with my mother’s funeral needs as well as his. We could not have been more pleased with the kindness, compassion and knowledge that was provided to myself and my sister upon our first visit as we began the funeral planning for my dad. The entire staff were very accommodating, extremely professional and pleasant throughout the entire process. Days after the service I even received a follow up from Carpenter’s checking on us, and to see if we needed anything further. We could not have been more pleased and appreciative in how my father was cared for and how the entire staff assisted us through a difficult time. Very high recommendations with Carpenter Memorial Chapel.”

“The team at Carpenter memorial chapel are amazing. They were incredibly kind and thoughtful. They were professional, yet warm from the time they picked mom up from her home and throughout the funeral and burial process. They even checked in on us a month after she died. We could not have asked for better care at a difficult time.”
