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.

“I started looking for a funeral home to set up a cremation only package for my father. He is in a care center currently and not doing to well. I called the 3 funeral homes in Slidell and discussed pricing with all 3 and for this package. One was $3600, one was$2490 and Doyle's was $1825, It is amazing to me that literally the same service is double at one of the funeral homes. I went today and met with Ms.Gwen, the founders daughter and set up the cremation. She was very warm, understanding and helpful in my decision. I highly recommend Doyle's for their services as they are very professional with a caring touch.”
