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
“I worked in funeral services about ten years ago here in Gadsden. This week I had to return to Alabama to bury my Grandfather. My Grandfather was one of the most important people in my life. My family and I were more than pleased from start to finish. The two young men that came to pick up my grandfather were so kind and patient with us. Mr. Yates and the Rev. D. Jack Smith provided my family with the upmost courtesy and reverence during this time, and were both beyond professional. The facility is clean, beautifully furnished and the staff takes pride in their appearance.Thank you to both the staff and ownership of this funeral home for their attention and care.”
