What is burial insurance for seniors

Affordable burial insurance for seniors

Today’s seniors are living longer and longer. But we all die eventually. This presents a unique problem for seniors. The problem is the cheapest rates for insurance are when you are younger. As you age so does the likelihood that you will have health conditions that will disqualify you from full medically underwritten policies. This is where burial insurance or final expense insurance comes in. And the burial insurance is more affordable than you think.

Burial insurance and final expense insurance means the same thing. It is a permanent life insurance policy. The premiums do not increase as you get older and the coverage does not expire. The amount you pay each month will not go up. That is good because more and more seniors are living on a fixed income like social security. It also accumulates a cash value that you can loan money from and spend while you are still alive!

The face amounts are smaller usually between $2,000.00-$50,000.00 monthly premiums are usually between $30-$150 a month. The exact amount will depend on your health, pre-existing conditions, age, and gender.
