“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.

“I just worked with Allore/Martenson Family of Funeral Homes and they were incredibly helpful, kind, and patient with us. My grandfather passed away, and as we were going through the arrangements they were able to help us manage the content so we could show it in two languages so family in other countries could easily see the information. They helped us create cards in two languages as well, and were attentive as we gave feedback and asked questions. We were able to give my grandfather a heartfelt and beautiful service, and without stress. We're incredibly grateful for what the folks there did for us over the last two weeks. It certainly helped ease a difficult transition for all of us.”

“I went to Allore to help with my fiancé s final arrangements. They were professional and supportive. They guided me through the process. I never felt rushed or that had to do or get things I didn't want. The pricing was fair and manageable. I appreciated the help I was given. Allore made a difficult time in our family's life much easier.”
— Barbara Vilas
