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
“When presented with the price list for cremation, I asked the director if there was a Ralphs nearby, so that I could find the most modestly priced receptacle for my fathers ashes. I then learned that Ralphs does not operate in Columbus. I was immediately bummed out but understood. I'm giving 5 stars, as my father did not come back to life after he was cremated, which I believe is the epitome of what a cremation service should be. (Seriously, they are great. My dad would of thought this was hilarious)”
— Chris Spears
“Was extremely impressed with Shaw-Davis. They were upfront about pricing and didn’t push for anything I didn’t want or need. They file all of my paperwork quickly and were very prompt when I called and asked for anything.”
— Nathan Breneman
“They are very helpful and caring. I started using them in 2017 for my husband's cremation. We recently used them in 2024 for my mother's cremation. My father is 92 and has requested that I use them for his funeral needs. They are the first choice for my family's funeral needs.”
