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.

“Words can’t express how grateful I’m am of Shane the director of the funeral home. He worked with me and helped relieve a heavy weight off my shoulders. They are all very caring and easy to talk too. I’ve never wrote a review for any business before but they deserve 10 stars!”
— Amber Strickler
“I wasn't thrilled how they treated my God daughters. While I understand time is money. I also know people with compassion are in this world. They were very strict as to opening the door at the exact minute. They did however apologize to a family member that wanted to say their good byes after they told them family first. Death is heart wrenching and sometimes you have to extend your heart even when you may lose a few bucks.”
