What Final Expense Insurance Covers

A complete auto policy combines several coverage types. Mix and match based on your state requirements, budget, and how you use your vehicle.

Funeral & Burial Costs

Covers casket or urn, funeral service, burial or cremation fees, grave marker, and related costs — the largest single final expense for most families.

Outstanding Medical Bills

End-of-life medical care often leaves unpaid balances. Final expense coverage gives your family funds to settle these obligations without tapping their own savings.

Small Debts & Credit Cards

Credit card balances, personal loans, and other small debts that could otherwise fall to surviving family members are covered by the death benefit.

Probate & Legal Expenses

Attorney fees and court costs involved in settling your estate can be paid from the policy proceeds, protecting your beneficiaries from unexpected legal expenses.
