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.

“It's never a fun time when you have to use services from places like these, however The process was made so seamless and easy and everybody seemed very genuine when they helped us. There was a lot of concern and a lot of heartfelt communication between us and everyone we talked to. With the arrangements that we specifically had with them we did not have to travel all the way there because we live so far away and they were willing to meet us halfway. That shows again them going above and beyond to help us out in our time of need. Obviously the idea is to never have to use a funeral service if need be but once you do I would highly recommend these people. If I could give them more than five stars I would.”

He is a very kind, respectful, and all around genuine person. Hopefully I don't have any passings anytime soon, but I know who I will be working with whenever it happens again. Thank you Mike for being a little light in a dark time!”
