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
“My family and I experienced a tragic loss in our immediate family. Figuring out which funeral home to choose was very hard given our acute grief and our desire to honor our loved one. I chose Foothills Cremation and Funeral Service hoping for the best but honestly not entirely sure given my emotional state. They are not the largest or fanciest funeral home, which may be one reason why they are exceptional. John was very empathetic, professional, detail oriented, and they were reasonably-priced. He navigated us through the most difficult task of our lives as if we were his only client, and I am forever grateful. Thank you John and Foothills Cremation.”
— Michael Edwards
