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
“Our family faced the loss of both my mother in law and my husband this year and Busch was there with us every step of the way, as we planned and managed their respective memorial services. The staff at Busch are kind and sensitive to the needs of grieving families. They maintained a high standard of competence and professionalism at all times. We also faced the loss of our beloved pastor in that same span of time so Busch helped us connect with their own officiants who led each service on his behalf. The director and his staff thoughtfully added special touches to my mother in law’s service by providing Coca-Cola memorabilia once they learned she was a fan of vintage Coke ads. They provided numerous easels so that were able to display her ink and pencil artwork all around the event space, as a way to pay tribute to her incredible talent. Staff members helped us set up musical instruments for our children to play at my husband’s service and allowed us to bring in and display furniture he had made as a woodworking hobbyist. Every detail of each event was handled for us, from flowers, refreshments, music, photos, and mementos, down to the official paperwork, with little effort on my part, which allowed me the time and energy to attend to our grieving children. I highly recommend Busch funeral services to anyone facing the loss of a loved one.”

“The people at Busch were so helpful and compassionate from when I called them at 12:30 am the morning my wife passed, through the whole process, even following up with me after the funeral was over. Thank you for taking such good care of my wife.”
— L T Koechley
“Busch Funeral Home is very professional and made everything easy during a tough time. I worked directly with Alan, but came in contact with other members of the team as well and everyone was very nice. They did a great job and handled all requests graciously.”
