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
“Our family had a great experience using Calvert & Metzler Funeral home after our father passed away. We had went in and met with Kevin a while back and prepaid for my dad's final expenses, he explained everything down to the last detail, things we had not thought of. The staff were all very helpful and caring. I would definitely use them again in the future.”
— Vickie Peters
“Losing my mom to cancer was the hardest experience I have ever had to go through. We came to Calvert Metzler the morning that she died. As hard as it was to make the funeral arrangements, they took great care and attention to detail, and ensured everything at the funeral went off without a hitch. I didn’t have to worry about anything that day, and they made sure everything was organized, and approached everything very gently for us. Afterwards, my mom‘s birthday was just a few weeks after she passed and they reached out. They continued to support our family even after the funeral was over.”
— Kelsi
“Fourteen years ago our daughter passed away. We came to you to plan her funeral. Your staff were wonderful helping us through a tough time. We then preplanned our funerals. Sadly my husband passed away in November! Thank you again for your great service!”
