Permanent coverage
Coverage is designed to remain in force for life as long as required premiums are paid and policy terms are satisfied.
Final expense insurance
Plan for funeral costs, medical bills, and other end-of-life expenses with permanent life insurance designed around a modest benefit amount.
Understanding the coverage
Final expense insurance is typically a permanent life policy with a smaller death benefit intended to help loved ones handle costs that arise at the end of life. The benefit is generally paid to the named beneficiary, who can use it according to the family’s needs.

Common questions
Life insurance benefits are generally paid to the named beneficiary rather than a funeral provider. The beneficiary typically decides how the funds are used, subject to the policy and applicable law.
No. Many final expense options use simplified underwriting, but applicants may need to answer health questions and approval is not guaranteed.
Some policies limit the benefit payable for non-accidental death during an initial period, often returning premiums plus interest instead. Terms vary, so the benefit schedule should be reviewed carefully.
