1. What is final expense insurance?
Final expense insurance, also known as burial insurance, is a type of life insurance policy designed to cover funeral and burial costs, as well as any outstanding medical bills or debts. This insurance helps ensure that your loved ones are not burdened with these expenses during a difficult time.
2. How does final expense insurance differ from funeral insurance?
Final expense insurance provides a lump sum payout to the beneficiary, who can use the funds for any end-of-life expenses. Funeral insurance, or pre-need insurance, is purchased directly from a funeral home and covers specific funeral services and items as outlined in the policy.
3. What types of final expense insurance plans are available?
There are generally two types of final expense insurance plans:
- Guaranteed Issue: These policies do not require a medical exam or health questions, making them accessible to everyone, regardless of health conditions.
