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 have dealt with a couple of different funeral homes in my life and even in different states. This was by far the most courteous and respectful one. All funeral homes could learn from how they handle things. We specifically worked with the funeral Director Bill, who I cannot say enough good things about. He made things easier for us in so many ways with both big and little details. His compassion was a blessing and eased our burden. Thank you for everything.”
— Lisa Bond
“My husband passed and the funeral home employees and especially Joe made my entire family feel special. They went beyond every expectation. They were very attentive to every last detail.”
— Susan Horth
“This place is very professional and compassionate for such an emotional situation. I felt 100% about the choices that were made and how everything went! I really like the fact that everything is done in house and not sent out to different counties. Thank you very much for taking care of someone very special to be with respect and dignity!”
— Amber Pace
