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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional service provided by Jefferson Mortuary. Throughout our family's experience with them, the staff demonstrated a genuine commitment to treating us like family from the moment we entered their establishment. Their staff's expertise in the life insurance portion of the business was invaluable, and their attention to detail ensured that each of our loved ones was prepared with care and dignity. The respect and kindness they showed to our family members during a difficult time were truly remarkable. We had the pleasure of using Jefferson Mortuary for three separate funerals, and each experience was handled with professionalism and sensitivity. They effectively implemented our wishes for each service, and we appreciated the flexibility they provided. Their facility was more than suitable for each of the funerals, offering ample space for the home goings. I would highly recommend Jefferson Mortuary to someone seeking a family-centered, respectful, and compassionate approach to navigating the complexities of funeral planning. Please do not hesitate to reach out to them if you need assistance with funeral arrangements. I have no doubt that you will appreciate their dedication and professionalism.”
