What is Final expense insurance?
Final expense insurance can cover expenses which could include medical bills, funeral expenses and bills that are due. Final Expense insurance is also known as burial insurance.
Final Expense Insurance is not a subject people like to talk about. Believer it or not, everyone will need to deal with it. The typical cost of a funeral in Huntington Beach is around $7,000, that does not include any debt. When someone dies that is close to you there are many things to take care of. You do not want the cost of the funeral to get in the way. Something to recognize is the life expectancy for a male in California is 76 years old.

There are two types of final expense insurance.
Simplified Life Insurance: The premiums are typically lower than Guaranteed Issue policies. With Simplified Life you of course will need answer medical questions, but, not have to take a physical examination. You do not need to have a blood or urine test. Based on the answers you give, the insurance company will determine if you qualify. With Simplified Life you can qualify for coverage up to $50,000.
Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance: The premiums are typically much higher because there are no medical questions or examination. This is usually what you see on TV commercials and other advertising. The coverage is also much lower, normally $25,000, or less. In addition this policy may have a death clause, which means, if you die within a certain period after the issue date, your beneficiaries will not receive the full benefit. Instead, they may receive the paid premium back with possible interest at a 10% annual rate.
