Ron Kinnersley InsuranceCover the funeral bill before it lands on your kids.
Final expense insurance is a small whole life policy, typically a few thousand to around forty thousand dollars, that pays funeral and burial costs directly to the person you name. Most plans use a health questionnaire instead of a medical exam, and the coverage does not expire while premiums are paid.

Final expense premiums are driven mostly by your age and the benefit amount, so three answers are enough for Ron to start comparing. Most carriers decide on a health questionnaire rather than a medical exam.
- ✓ Simplified underwriting, usually no medical exam
- ✓ Benefit paid to the person you name, not the funeral home
- ✓ Premium generally level for the life of the policy

What a final expense policy actually pays for.
The benefit is paid in cash to whoever you name, and they decide how it gets spent. Most families settle the funeral home invoice first, then use what is left on whatever else is outstanding.
Funeral and burial
Casket, plot, headstone, service and transport. Because the money goes to your beneficiary rather than the funeral home, your family keeps control of what they buy and from whom.
Bills that outlive you
Hospital balances, hospice copays and the other costs that arrive weeks after the service, once the sympathy cards have stopped.
Whatever is left over
Money not spent on the funeral stays with your family, and is often what carries a surviving spouse through the first few months.
Built for a decision without a medical exam.
Because the coverage amount is small, most carriers can approve a final expense application on a short health questionnaire rather than a paramedical exam, and can often return a decision faster than a fully underwritten life policy.
That is the whole reason this product exists as something separate from term life. It is not a smaller version of a bigger policy, it is a different underwriting path aimed at people a fully underwritten carrier would decline or rate up.
