Which Companies Offer Final Expense Insurance In Arizona?
All insurance is regulated by each state rather than the federal government. It’s for that reason that burial insurance policies in the United States vary from one state to another.
Below is a breakdown of which funeral insurance companies are available in Arizona.

How Much Does Burial Insurance Cost In Arizona?
The price of a burial policy is a function of your precise age, gender, state of residence, health history (if applying for a plan without a waiting period), and the death benefit amount.
How Do Funeral Insurance Plans Work?
Final expense insurance plans are a type of whole life insurance usually meant to cover funeral expenses. However, the payout money can be used by your family for any reason. When you die, the insurance company will pay cash (tax-free) to your beneficiaries, which they can spend with no restrictions.
Most companies offer coverage ranging from $25,000 to $50,000. A medical exam is never required, and seniors with prior health issues are still eligible for a new policy.
Some plans have health questions that determine your eligibility based on your health history. If approved, plans with health questions have no waiting period, meaning you’re fully covered the day you make your first payment. On the other hand, some plans have no health questions.
Often called “guaranteed acceptance”, these plans always have a two-year waiting period. If you die during the waiting period, the insurer will only refund the premiums you have paid.
Since it’s whole life insurance, the premiums never increase, and the coverage never decreases. Additionally, the policy will remain in force indefinitely and accumulate cash value.

The Free Look Period In Arizona And The FTC Funeral Rule
The free look provision in Arizona must be at least ten days. During this time, you have the right to refuse a life insurance policy for any reason and receive a refund of any premiums that may have been paid.
For funeral planning, another law to be mindful of is the FTC’s Funeral Rule, which governs funeral homes. Essentially, it requires funeral homes to provide consumers with verbal or written prices upon request.
Furthermore, they must accept products (such as caskets) from third parties and give you the option to choose only the products and services you want (you don’t have to accept pre-packaged funeral plans).
