Senior Life Insurance
Life insurance protection for our senior clients
Most of our senior clients want permanent life insurance protection to cover their final expenses. Burial costs, medical bills and debt are the most common reasons that seniors buy life insurance. A final expense life insurance policy can pay for these cost and take the financial burden away from spouses and children.
What a final expense policy offers
We need something for this section….
Guaranteed death benefit
Most final expense policies cover you from $2,000 to $40,000. As long as you make your premium payments you will continue to be covered.
Cash Value Accumulation
Since most final expense policies are whole life insurance, you will build up a cash value in your policy that you can borrow from to cover emergencies.
Simplified underwriting
Let’s face the facts. As we age we may develop health issues that effect our life expectancy. Our final expense policies do not require health exams. You will have to answer questions about your health that the underwriters will use to determine your insurability.
Two types of final expense life insurance
-
Level benefit
You are covered on the first day that your policy is in force. As soon as you are approved and pay your first premium you are covered. If you are generally healthy, you will qualify for a level benefit policy.
-
Guaranteed issue
If you don’t qualify for a level benefit policy due to your health, you can choose a guaranteed issue policy. Coverage will start after 2 full years of your policy issue date. If you die before the 2 years, your premiums plus interest will be refunded to your beneficiary.
Riders available for final expense life insurance

No. The premiums for a final expense life insurance policy are guaranteed to remain level. The younger you start your policy, the lower the cost will be.
If you miss a premium payment on your policy, there is usually a grace period during which you can still make your premium payment. If you fail to make the premium payment during the grace period your policy may lapse and your life insurance coverage end.
