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 talked with Amanda about planning our funerals. She is outstanding! She went through every step and explained everything in a way that we could understand. She was patient, friendly and knowledgeable. Since death and funerals are not easy to talk about, Amanda made it easier.”

“Very courteous took their time with me, knowing it was a hard time for me never made me feel rushed was very friendly felt like family. They took really good care of my mothers. Looks especially when she’s more conservative and they gave gifts that were unexpected for their condolences. They have many options so you don’t feel that you can’t get something done there, as well as their environment was very clean was even better. They had everything done for me. I didn’t have to stress and I cannot say how much that this place was worth going to for your love ones that pass. Financial options are available and enough space to invite a good amount of people. They also did recordings and they did flyers. They handled everything very well and a good manner.”
