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 wouldn't recommend their services. They were not the most professional. They would say they would do something or that they did something which had not. They were more about the money in my opinion. The so called discount was not a discount compared to other homes. This was first time dealing with them and definitely my last.”
— Zakeia Smith
“I would like to commend the Bagwell Funeral Home and their staff, for providing a wonderful service for my mother. They were not only courteous & caring but they were proficient and professional. I can’t say enough, as to how they made a very difficult day bearable. They are truly an asset to their community. My family and I would like to thank them, from the bottom of our hearts. Josefa Foy in c/o Mrs Mildred Foy”
— Yolanda Foy
“Mr. Bagwell, was so professional as always, when my sister passed suddenly. It was such a difficult time for our family but he made the process burden free. When we arrived to make arrangements the first thing he said was let's have prayer. Which you rarely see in his profession. I would recommend him to anyone in need.”
— Barbara Ann B2B Back to Basics
