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.

“The staff of Tristate was more than helpful. They turned an otherwise awful and stressful experience into the best that it could be. They assisted through the whole process and even answered the phone outside of business hours to help with any questions. The entire staff was wonderful, and this was also after dealing with a separate funeral home (not in this area) who was not the nicest. Tristate staff was not only professional and accommodating, but they CARED, which is exactly what families need.”
— Misty Tyler
“The staff at Tri-State went beyond what is customary for customer service. Each staff member is a top performer that exhibits meticulous detail in each step of the process. Even further each staff member quietly and professionally demonstrates genuine concern with respect, words and a gracious demeanor that makes you comfortable in their presence. Attributes of these nature in the business world are never forgotten by customers.”
— Elizabeth Edwards Stone
“Tri-State handled my grandpa's cremation back in February of 2024 and went above and beyond. I was in school at the time for Funeral Services and had only heard of them by word of mouth and I am so glad I made the split second decision. The cost I later learned was the most reasonable in the area but the care my family was shown was the kindest. I am truly grateful for the service & care Tri-State is supporting our community with and have chosen them several times since last February.”
