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.
“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.

“Manning Funeral Home did a wonderful job with my mother. Their service is red carpet, white glove, impeccable! They truly helped my dad when preparing for his wife’s Home going, making the process smooth and as painless as possible. Mitch, and his staff were amazing. The limousine driver (sadly I cannot remember his name) was attentive, professional, and respectful. He listened with compassion as my dad talked about his wife during the grieving process. My family is forever thankful for their service. Manning Funeral Home has remained professional, and classy over the years. It is truly one of the last places on Earth that, I believe, you will always receive quality service. The HEMBRICK’s”
