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've known Gary for a long time and my Grandparents and Aunt had their services at Gass Haney and everything was always perfect. Our Mom, and our dad's wife of 69 years recently passed in Loveland Colorado and our dad Dale wanted her buried in Columbus with her parents and sister and where she spent many great years and had many friends and relatives in the area. I worked with Gary and Jon on the logistics from Loveland where she was cremated to Columbus. They set up everything for the burial with the city, and I had no doubt everything would be perfect, and it was. They took every call within minutes and gave us every piece of information we needed. Thank you again for your caring service and making it very stress-free for our family and especially for our dad. We will be having a celebration of life at a later date at Gass Haney.”
