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.

“Woodlawn Memorial Services in Forest Park handled our beloved mother’s arrangements with dignity, compassion, and professionalism from start to finish. During one of the most difficult times for our family, their staff was patient, respectful, and attentive to every detail. Ashley, in particular, handled our mother’s services with great care and compassion. She guided us through each step, answered our questions, and made sure everything was carried out just as we wished. The service was beautiful, well-organized, and a true reflection of the love and respect we have for our mother. We are grateful for the care they showed our family and would confidently recommend Woodlawn Memorial Services to anyone in need of thoughtful and professional funeral arrangements.”

“I did not use the services of this funeral home because I found out about them when I started shopping for cemeteries and I regret not having them provide the full service for my wife's funeral. This place feels calm and their services are exceptional. I only used them to purchase the burial plots for my wife and pre purchased space for myself right next to my wife and committed to them performing my services when my time comes.”
