Start with the job the coverage needs to do

Final Expense coverage is a type of permanent life insurance. The death benefit is paid to the beneficiary under the terms of the policy, and the beneficiary generally decides how to use it.

The conversation should begin with expected end-of-life costs, existing savings or coverage, the people who would handle the bills, and a premium that fits the household budget.

  • Funeral and burial or cremation costs
  • Bills or small debts left behind
  • Existing savings and life insurance
  • A beneficiary who can carry out the plan
