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 own a local Ice Cream truck and when our commissary was closed due to remodeling, the American Legion didn't hesitate to step up offering to share their space as our new commissary allowing us to remain in business through the closure. It's clear they truly care about the community and I appreciate how accommodating they have been for us. Many Thanks!!”

“We rented that area to have my uncle's after funeral services and family gathering there. Was a very nice place and clean. The owners were nice and respectful to our situation and were very supportive to any and all of our needs. If I had to suggest a place for any type of social gathering, the American Legion would definitely be one of my first suggestions”

“Reminds me of my grandfather, 60 years ago. Same creaky floors, same wandering "I wonder what's in this room?," Same friendly feeling. Big Differences however, my grandfather NEVER offered to buy me a beer and he didn't even have a TV. Not my home Legion, but I'm here almost as often.”
