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
“We used the Passantino's for a re-interment of our baby sister. They treated her as if she was their baby sister. Everything was done with such professionalism and care. This was done more than 2 years ago; but there treatment of her remains and the interment was memorable.”
— ANDRE YOUNG
“Charlie and his associates have always been there for my family in our times of crisis. A phone call is all it takes and they take over with dignity and genuine caring. Truly a remarkable organization.”
— Frank Ferguson
“I have done HUNDREDS of funerals as a Pastor but never have I seen a place like this. It was dirty...the water fountain didn't work. The bathroom was filthy. They was no organization for the service. The"director" was non existent. It was a terrible place to have a funeral and I will steer people from this place. Tragic.”
— Darren Tharp
