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 hearts were broken on November 7th 2025 as we lost Steve (age 47)- husband, father of 3, son, brother, uncle, and friend to so many. During our most heart breaking time it was a blessing to have Muehlebach Funeral Care to support our family. I truly cannot express in words how helpful and supportive Makayla Ridley, Funeral Director, and Mary Brenner, Advanced Planning Director, were- they made this agonizing process just a little easier with their compassion and kindness. They took care of details I was too exhausted to think of and have continued to check in on our family. I feel like they are now a part of my extended family and I am forever grateful for their dedicated service in helping our family to honor, celebrate, and remember Steve.”
— Michaela Logan
“It has taken me several weeks to write this review and I’m glad it did. The people at Muehlebach have continued with thoughtful support even though the services are over and an earlier review would not have reflected that. From the very beginning, they were all kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable and professional. They made a very sad time for our family easier. Mikayla took care of details I would never have thought of and hard details we would have handled but really didn’t want to. They know what to do and what to say, and do both with the highest level of professionalism and compassion. It is clear they are passionate about the work they do and genuinely care about the people they work with, including providing dignity to the deceased. They did our mom’s cremation and we knew she was in good and caring hands. The staff at Muehlebach worked as a team caring for our family, taking care of everything so we could focus on our grief and on each other. Knowing they were just a phone call away brought us great comfort. I cannot say enough about how valuable and helpful they were in guiding us through the funeral process and all the details surrounding the death of a parent. I will always be grateful for their expert guidance and support.”
— Gina Staves
“The whole process of planning a funeral is mind blowing and at Muehlbach Funeral they were so organized and friendly. They helped me and my family navigate through all of this. All plans were explained and well organized. All things were itemized on the statement so you knew the cost of every item. The men that attended the funeral were very professional. They even checked up on me days after the service.”
