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.

“My son was a patient in ICU for several weeks. He was treated with professionalism, empathy, and a caring staff. The hospital had undergone some renovations and was nicely done and very clean. Very accommodating to family members. Most unfortunately, my son passed away, even though they had given him the best medical attention available. The nursing staff in ICU was outstanding, as well as the Chaplains on site.”

“I've had to got here for a concussion, COVID, and for a 4 cm hemorrhagic ovarian cyst. I was in a bed within 3 hours for the cyst and concussion, and 4 hours for COVID when they were slammed (pulse ox of 92 so I was low priority). I saw a doctor all three times. I was given proper medication for pain and breathing issues both times. I had some issues when I went in for COVID with my breathing treatment but they were also very busy. I was thankful to have a bed, even in the hallway. They treated me with respect and answered all of my questions. This is the BEST emergency room in Gainesville. An extra nice thing: they put me in a chair to receive treatment for my concussion but I was in the corner and the curtains didn't close around me. The bright lights we're making my concussion worse so I used a hair claw clip to pull the curtains closed. Every single nurse and doctor that came in literally clipped the curtains closed behind them when they came / went. I thought I might get in trouble for it but they thought it was genius.”
