Myth: Life insurance covers funeral expenses.

Fact: If you have a life insurance policy—and more than 40% of Americans don’t, according to a 2018 study by Foresters Financial—it’s not safe to assume it will cover funeral and other end-of-life expenses. Why?

Funeral expenses are due at the time of service, and life insurance policies typically don't pay out until weeks after death, which means that your family will need to pay the expenses up front. What's more, there's no guarantee that the life insurance payout amount will cover the cost of funeral expenses, and some life insurance policies have restrictions on how funds can be used.

Planning things out can be a source of relief for many, and though planning end-of-life details may seem sad, it doesn't have to be. And those who do it usually feel a burden lifted once arrangements—and funds—are in place.

Burial insurance for parents is a good idea—but there's something better. A prepaid funeral plan ensures you can pay for your parents' funeral at the time it is needed and protects against inflation.

Though the government offers excellent burial benefits when a veteran is buried in a state or national veterans cemetery, there's often limited financial assistance for funeral or cremation services themselves. That's why many veterans service organizations partner with funeral homes to help bridge funding gaps and complement government burial benefits.

Veterans may qualify for VA burial benefits. Read some of the frequently asked questions about veteran burials, benefits and funeral information.
