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
“During one of the hardest times our family has faced, the entire staff was extremely kind, helpful, and supportive. We are deeply grateful for everything you all did for our family. A special thank you to Carmelita and Aisha. Aisha went out of her way to make sure the funeral went smoothly, and her care meant so much to us.”
— Sharita Alexander
“Guy & Allen Funeral Directors of Gary, Indiana, USA. Outstanding support for Families during their most special time in life. Ms. Patrician has been here over 41 years. And Taquia has been here over 20 year.”
— Archbishop Dr Smith Abrams Almasi MDiv DD THD PhD
“My grandmother’s services were held at this facility and unfortunately the experience was disappointing and disheartening. The staff came across as surprisingly insensitive given the nature of their business. The officiant clearly had not prepared he even mispronounced one of the most common names (also the name of a state, spelled the same) which felt careless and disrespectful. His delivery was confusing, making it difficult to follow what he was trying to convey. To make matters worse, instead of reading parts of the service aloud, he asked the family to read them ourselves, which felt inappropriate and impersonal for such an occasion. Additionally, the staff told us we could not speak to one another during the service because other funerals were taking place. While I understand this is a business, a funeral home should still prioritize compassion and respect for grieving families. Guy & Allen may be one of the oldest funeral homes in Gary but from my experience that does not equate to quality service. I encourage families to explore other options when honoring their loved ones.”
