Questions to Ask When You Call
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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“Adam's house is absolutely wonderful for those lost parents and children that need a comforting place to be to help them and ourselves understand that it's ok to feel the way we feel. With open arms, they have welcomed us, with hands held they guided us and with huge hearts they greatly impacted our lives going forward ❤️”
— B Tortorella
“This place is a life changer. My kids and I did the summer program and it completely changed our lives for the better. Having adults who have gone through a loss like you experienced is such a blessing and then to have the kids around other kids their age who have also gone through said loss is amazing for the kids. If you come in with an open mind and a willingness to find lifelong solutions and practices to aid you in your grief and mourning this place is phenomenal. THANK YOU ADAM'S HOUSE!! My kids and are eternally grateful!”
