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
“The team at Berge-Pappas Smith are so sensitive, kind, and wonderful to work with. The entire occasion was very easy to logistically plan, given how devastating it was to go through. They really made a difficult situation, easier to go through, especially because we chose repatriation. I am so grateful to have chosen to take my loved one here.”
— Victoria Manibog
“My mothers funeral and cremation was done very smoothly and respectfully. Everything from removal of the body to the dressing to the cermony and cremation was done with dignity and with the wishes of the family. They also guided us through all the paper needed and the ashes scattering process (hindu rites). I highly recommend them. They were truly an ally during a time of extreme stress”
— Sameer Nanavati
“Very compassionate and patient during the entire process, always willing and ready to assist our family with all aspects of the process. Planning ahead with B-P-S Chapel of The Angels is strongly recommended.”
