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.

“Brian, the owner is THE MOST hardworking, honest and dependable person I have ever come across in my life. I haven't actually done business with the company...he's my uncle but he basically raised me like a blood son and, we aren't even blood relatives. Our relation is via marriage. I can vouch for his goodness and wholesomeness as a human being. He works 7 days a week probably 90% of the year(the other 10% is church and his yearly one week vacation) and never complains about anything. Just going off of how he treats his family, blood or not, I know he is someone with whom anyone would be privileged to do business. Go to the shop and see for yourself, Talk to his employees. He treats them better than any boss out there and they will vouch for that. He treats them better than himself in regards to the business. He IS the Bell Burial Vaults company and if you want an honest, reliable, hard working company then look no where else. He lives his life solely to make sure his loved ones are happy and well taken care of so, one can only imagine how he handles his business and customers. He is old school and can't even turn on a computer let alone have a website...I truly hope that anyone reading this who may be on the fence about BBVC will fall off and land on the right side. His company.”
