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.

What Families Say
“When my father became ill, we first tried working with another funeral home in Lorain since they had helped with my mother’s arrangements back in 1999. Unfortunately, it was a nightmare. They seemed unwilling to communicate or guide us unless there was a body present, and they made everything feel complicated and impersonal. I felt completely lost and overwhelmed. My sister then met with Gluvna and couldn’t say enough good things about them—so we decided to make the change. I’m so thankful we did. Jeff and Jerry were incredible. They genuinely cared about our family and the loss of my father. Every detail was handled with compassion, professionalism, and respect. Everything truly happens for a reason. I’m grateful that the first place didn’t work out, because I can’t imagine any other funeral home in Lorain taking care of us the way Gluvna did.”

“Jerry handled my dads arrangements, He went above and beyond in helping me to give dad a service he would be happy with. The UK vault was icing on the cake”
— KJ
“I would just like to share what a wonderful job Jerry done for me and my family. Jerry also did two of my sister's service's. He is wonderful and myself and my family would recommend him to anyone. Thanks so much Jerry. The Shank Family.”
