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.

“This is a high-end, upscale establishment that had been operating in Brownsville many years. It has a modern TV screen at the entrance to let you know you have found the right family. It is located on the corner of Palm Blvd. and Monroe St. close to downtown Brownsville and very close to the Mexico Boarder crossing - the locals call “The Oíd Bridge.” Or B&M bridge (which used to be a swing bridge until the 1960’s.”
