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.

“East Lawn Funeral Home and Memorial Park exceeded my expectations during the most difficult time of my life. I was married to my husband for 30 years, and his passing has been devastating. Joshua Sheets is the person to ask for—he was kind, sympathetic, never pushy, and always took the time to answer my questions. If he didn’t know an answer, he made sure to find out and follow up. Joshua oversaw both the funeral service and the burial ceremony at the VA National Cemetery and took great pride in dressing my husband exactly how we wanted. The funeral home was very clean and smelled pleasant, and all the staff went above and beyond to help us. I have attended many funerals, and this was by far the best experience. Thank you for the lasting memories of my husband.”
