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.

“It is important to feel respected during the most difficult time of losing a loved one. Josh Schoenberg was very professional, respectful, and kind. We are deeply grateful for how easy he made it to put our beloved son to rest. Thank you!”
— Vicki Tait
“The best experience I ever had at a god-awful time in my life. This was handled professionally, respectfully, and proper care for everyone involved. Josh, the director is extremely intelligent and thoughtful. He knows exactly what needs to be done for a proper and respectful Jewish service. Although this is not the kind of service that you would want to have to use repeatedly, when the need inevitably occurs, there is no one in the area that I would recommend more highly than Josh and the Schoenberg Memorial Chapel.”
— Lawrence Rubin
“Our family is very grateful to Josh Schoenberg, the funeral director. He took the time to meet me at the hospital to go over the contract and fully explain all the details. Everything was very straight forward with no hidden fees. I felt completely confident and at ease with everything presented. He also went a step further and delivered the cremains to me since I was not able to pick them up. Thank you Josh for making this difficult time a bit easier. I really appreciate all your help. **Beth J.”
