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
“My mother passed recently and had preplanned her service with Shirley Brothers. I worked with Dustin Miller and his team who were all ultra professional and wonderful before, during and after the funeral service. I would highly recommend Dustin Miller and Shirley Brothers for your arrangements, especially if you're in the old Irvington area of eastside Indianapolis. Jeff Bell”
— Jeff Bell
“Ok, but I wouldn’t use them again. It’s fairly clear that there are some financial issues. I was embarrassed and irritated when they brought a 20 year old hearse for my father. The funeral director left before the showing was over, and left an elderly lady that was nice, but didn’t have a clue what was going on. They have no caskets on site to look at. Just video slides. They sold off their limos during Covid because apparently they couldn’t use them, but that just doesn’t make sense. I would spend more next time for a nicer funeral home.”
