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.

“The sudden passing of my father-in-law left us hurriedly Looking for a place to take care of him. I tried the discount places, and the lack of service was obvious. For a little bit extra, the very reasonably priced Cypress Pointe cremation was definitely the place to take care of him, And us! No Question was too stupid to have kindly answered In our inexperience Of dealing with the death and what happens next. Their website clearly states what their service is and for Price. I highly recommend Joe and his compassionate and courteous staff to take care of you at a very difficult time”

“Joe and Emma are amazing. They made the process so easy for me. Losing a loved one is hard and they were very thoughtful and compassionate about everything. Worked with my schedule and guided me through the whole process. I would highly recommend taking your loved one to them. Thank you for being amazing and God Bless!”
— Janet Nelson
“My son passed away unexpectedly. He lived in Missouri while I am in Mississippi, so I contacted Cypress Pointe for help with his cremation. I spoke with Joe Kalmer, who was absolutely wonderful. He was upfront about the pricing and never pressured me to purchase a more expensive package or urn. There were no hidden fees, and compared to other options I looked into, their pricing was very reasonable. I had never been through this process before and wasn’t sure how to proceed. Joe guided me through everything with patience and compassion, explaining each step and providing all the information I needed. He responded quickly to every call and email. His support made an incredibly difficult time a little easier, and I am truly grateful.”
