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 had a very disappointing phone interaction with one of the funeral directors. During our conversation, the call was abruptly ended while I was still speaking, which felt dismissive and discourteous. In moments when families are dealing with loss, respectful and compassionate communication is especially important. I hope the organization reflects on this experience and emphasizes kindness and professionalism in their service.”
— Nayoung Ha
“In every aspect of the services for my Mom, everything was exceptional. The team’s compassion felt sincere, and they were very attentive and respectful, with a natural ability to read the room. I truly can’t say enough about how pleased we were overall.”
— Debbie Rohrwasser
“My first experience with the staff (Perrin S) was most pleasant. She made a difficult situation quite easy to manage and was compliant with whatever I asked. Starting at the reception to the finality of the cremation, everything was explained in complete detail which was greatly appreciated. The professionalism and kindness was all genuine. It was a pleasure to work with everyone there and I thank you all for your understanding and compassion. Kudos to all involved. Grace Ducharme as per Marleen Brown”
