So what is the difference between Life Insurance and Burial Insurance?
Burial insurance is a type of life insurance policy that covers short-term expenses related to death, such as funeral and cremation costs. It's also known as funeral insurance or final expense insurance. Burial insurance differs from traditional life insurance policies in a few ways:
Burial insurance typically offers a smaller benefit amount than traditional life insurance policies, usually between $5,000 and $20,000, while traditional life insurance can offer benefits of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Burial insurance is intended to cover final arrangements, while life insurance is designed to cover a wider range of needs, such as income replacement, paying off debts, or helping pay for college tuition.
Burial insurance premiums are often more affordable than life insurance premiums because you're only buying a small amount of coverage.
Burial insurance doesn't usually require a medical exam, while traditional life insurance policies often do.
No matter which type of plan you choose Striffler-Hamby Mortuary will help you coordinate with your insurance company when the time comes.
