How Does Burial Life Insurance Work?

Burial insurance (aka “funeral insurance,” “final expense insurance,” or “end-of-life insurance”) is a small whole life insurance policy meant to pay for your funeral costs.

Ultimately the policy pays out a tax-free cash death benefit to your beneficiaries (or funeral home).

They can spend that money on your final wishes, outstanding debts, medical bills, or anything else.

Any remaining money is theirs to keep.

The standard coverage options are $2,000-$40,000 with most insurance providers.

Burial expense policies don’t require a medical exam to qualify. In most cases, you only need to complete a basic health questionnaire.

Alternatively, some options are guaranteed issue which have no health or lifestyle questions.

If you’re eligible for a policy that has health questions, the coverage will have no waiting period.

That means you’re fully covered from day one for natural or accidental causes of death.

Because final expense policies are a type of whole life insurance, the way it works is very simple.

The premiums never increase, the coverage never decreases in value, and it will never expire at any age.

They will also build cash value that you can tap into should you need cash in a bind.

How Much Does Burial Insurance Cost In Indiana?

Typically, a $10,000 burial insurance policy costs about $50-$100 per month.

The price of a policy is based on your age, gender, health, tobacco usage history, and how much coverage you want.

How Much Does A Funeral Cost In Indiana?

The NFDA reports that the average traditional funeral, with a viewing, costs nearly $10,000.

Below is a breakdown of the average cost of a funeral in Indiana:

• Traditional burial service with a viewing: $7,868
• Direct burial: $4,003
• Cremation service with a viewing: $6,953
• Direct cremation: $2,284

Know Your Rights

Most states mandate that every insurance policy contains a “free look” provision, which grants you the right to refuse your policy for any reason.

Furthermore, if you return a policy, they must refund you any premiums you paid.

Sadly, Indiana does not have a legally mandated free-look provision. However, nearly every life insurance company voluntarily includes one that typically lasts 10-30 days.

So if you buy burial insurance in Indiana and are not satisfied, you can return it to the insurer and get a refund during their defined free look period.

How Choice Mutual Can Help

If you need a final expense policy for seniors, comparing offers from multiple insurers is critically important.

That’s the only way to ensure you’re finding the best policy.

If you need funeral insurance in Indiana, Choice Mutual can compare offers from nearly 20 companies to ensure you’re getting the best deal.

We are an independent agency that partners with multiple insurance companies. Our goal is to find each client the best policy regardless of which insurance company it’s with.

Another thing to note about independent agencies is that nearly all no waiting period funeral policies aren’t sold directly by insurance companies.

They are typically only sold via agencies like Choice Mutual.

Generally speaking, the insurers like Colonial Penn that sell their coverage directly (rather than through agencies) make you wait two years before you’re insured (plus they are costly).

So if you choose to work with us, we’ll answer all your questions and find which company has the best plan for you.
