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.

“Ozella Foster Funeral Home exceeded my expectations with professional and compassionate service. They did the service for my son and it was beautiful. I told them my budget and they gave me services that was below my budget. Ms Foster counseled me and explained everything to me. I told them my son loved the Rams and they created everything around that. I've worked with many funeral homes over the years, but Ozella Foster exceeded them all. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND them.”
