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.

“Brady went above and beyond for my Grandma and our family. They were very supportive, fairly priced, was able to play requested music, and the venue is beautiful and well kept. I recommend this business to anyone needing final arrangement planning.”

“First off it is a funeral home so it is not as much fun as one would think, but it is a fair price and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The treat everybody like you would like to be treated, we have been dealing with Plumb-Smith Funeral services for many years. Yes I know they are charging more than you can get coffins online but the service makes up for the money you may save. If you need this type of service this is a good place to go.”
— Larry Korpi (Dick Withers)
“Brady Smith has been wonderful to work with! Unfortunately I had to bury my brother in January who died in Tennessee and it was wonderful how much he helped me in many ways including getting him up here. Now I need to bury my mother and he has made this so much easier than other ones I have dealt with! I would highly recommend this funeral home! They are extremely kind and will help you through the entire process. It is hard enough to go through the loss of a loved one but he makes it so much easier! Thank you again Brady!
