“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.

“Very professional. Quick to return calls and answer questions. They made a very hard thing to go through more bearable, and walked me through every step. Everyone one I spoke to was very kind and empathetic. They are fantastic.”

“When we lost or son unexpectantly we needed a cremation service and had no idea of where to go. We knew we wanted to be local and after some research we found Alpha Omega in Mount Vernon. They were very helpful and respectful of our situation. Everything was handled professionally and in accordance with our expectations - they made it as easy for us as was possible. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others.”
— Michael Grove
“Their service was excellent but they were not clear about the overtime charges for pickup. If the pickup is done at home it takes 2 people so the charge is doubled.”
