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.
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
“I want to take this opportunity to say how much we appreciated Jeff Temples, Wayne Vestal, and Connie White from Temples-Halloran Funeral Home. The arrangements for our son's burial and memorial were made so much easier than one could have expected because of the professional and organized services provided. I was coming from the west coast and my short time line was met with no hesitation. The food for the memorial service was facilitated by the funeral home, the plaque for the niche was drawn up while I was there, cell phone numbers were made available for after hour calls if needed, and all details were met to perfection. Burying a child is not easy, but this tremendous funeral home made it so much less painful than it could have been. They have my deepest appreciation and gratitude for their caring assistance.”
— Marsha K. Price
“As my Husband explained already, we are horrified at what we found when we went to Celebrate our Sons Second Birthday. I have to contact them soon about getting his Headstone and I am Concerned about if they will even respect that either.”
— Danielle Goodrich
“Thought this was a decent place till my wife and I came to see our son on his 2nd birthday and found his pinwheel that was at his grave absolutely destroyed. It's obvious by the looks of it that it had been destroyed by a lawnmower, by a careless lawnworker that has no problem desicrating a child's grave. This is just disgusting.”
— Jason Goodrich
