Final Expense Policies: This Is How They Work
For starters, final expense plans are whole life insurance policies. Because it’s life insurance, the end result would simply be a tax free cash payment to your beneficiary.
Understanding how these policies work is incredibly simple.
All whole life burial insurance plans work as follows:
- Payments locked in for life (can’t increase).
- Coverage guaranteed to never decrease.
- Protection that lasts forever no matter how old you become.
That’s all there is to these policies. We told you they were simple 😎.
By far the biggest unique feature of these plans is the underwriting. Senior final life expense insurance has very lenient underwriting.
They want seniors with health issues to be able to qualify in spite of some health conditions.
Now this is crazy…
Some plans actually have no underwriting at all where your acceptance is guaranteed.
Granted, these no health question plans do cost more and have a waiting period, but they are a great option for folks who have certain very high risk health issues such as dialysis or dementia.
Guaranteed issue plans are not appropriate for everyone, but for some they are their only option.
Regarding the payout of the benefits, if there happens to be money leftover after your funeral bills are paid, it will remain with your family.
The extra money will not go to the funeral home.
