Final expense insurance, also known as burial or funeral insurance, is a type of life insurance designed to cover the costs associated with an individual’s end-of-life expenses, such as funeral services, burial or cremation, and other related costs. This insurance typically offers a smaller death benefit compared to traditional life insurance policies, making it easier to qualify for and more affordable. It provides financial relief to the insured’s family by ensuring that these expenses are covered, helping to avoid additional financial burden during a difficult time.
