“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

“Alexander Funeral Home in Taylorsville, NC assisted our family with pre-planning arrangements for our Mother, as well as final arrangements. At every step, customer service was a priority, answering every question, even when we didn’t know what to ask. Communication was excellent and we felt we could call anytime. Was really impressed that we were contacted after my Mom passed to offer assistance in any way to help the family through the grief process. Highly recommend this Funeral Home!!”
