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.

“We purchased a funeral plan and plots for my deceased brother and myself about four years ago. My brother's funeral was lovely and the cemetery was very green and well maintained with a beautiful lawn and flowers. Over the past couple of years, Rivera's has stopped watering, and everything looks like it's dying. They also stopped providing vases and water to visitors to place flowers on the graves. I'd like to find another cemetery to move to and charge Rivera's to pay for the move or sue for false pretenses.”
