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

“Jay is one of the kindest funeral directors I have had the pleasure to know. He has always treated each family with the respect and dignity and has gone above and beyond the expectations of what a funeral director has to offer. His kindness and compassion is a great guide to have during the process of grief. You make the world a little brighter, Jay.”

“This place is the best funeral home in Beloit. It really bothers me there’s a negative review on here because it is so misleading. Jay is the most compassionate person I’ve ever worked with in this field. I am an officiant who has done over 25 funerals. He has worked with me at last minute, he has worked with me with extenuating circumstances and always has the same compassion no matter who he is dealing with. We are really lucky to have such a legacy in Beloit with this funeral home as it has been a family business and Jay grew up in the industry and it is very evident . He is a gift to our community and when you lose somebody you love this funeral home is the best resource. Kathy Taylor”
