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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“Alyssa was truly a blessing to our family during one of the hardest moments of our lives. As the professional removal technician who handled the care and transport of my late grandmother, she showed such dignity, gentleness, and respect throughout the entire process. Her smile genuinely lit up the room in the middle of our grief. She carried herself with compassion and quiet strength, which brought a sense of peace we didn’t even know we needed. We are so grateful for the care she gave our grandmother and for the kindness she showed our family. She made a difficult moment feel handled with grace and honor. Thank you, Alyssa.”

“This company sent a driver to pick up my mom after she passed away, at an assisted living community. They were to assist preparing mom for transport back to her home state. I asked the driver his name and the company name, as they were contracted from our host funeral home. The guy didn't like "being questioned, Bro" (yes, he called me Bro) became aggressive with me..the hospice nurse stepped between us after he got in my face. Needless to say, we sent him away and got another company”
