Final Expense Insurance | American Road Legacy

Final expense insurance

Don't leave the bill to the people you love.

Funeral costs are due before the service, not after. Final expense coverage puts that money in your family's hands quickly, so they can grieve instead of scrambling.

What a funeral costs today

The Social Security lump-sum death payment was set at $255 in 1954 and has not changed since. Funeral cost range reflects national averages and varies by location and service.

What the coverage actually does

Pays out fast

Benefits are typically paid to your beneficiary within days of a claim, which matters when a funeral home needs payment up front.

Used for anything

Your beneficiary decides. Funeral and burial, medical bills, outstanding debts, or whatever the family needs most.

Stays in place for life

As long as premiums are paid, the coverage doesn't expire and the price doesn't go up as you get older.

How it works

Four steps, start to finish.

1

Choose your coverage amount

Most families choose between $5,000 and $25,000 based on what a service in their area costs.

2

Answer a few health questions

No medical exam and no bloodwork. Just a short set of yes or no questions.

3

Get your decision

Many applications receive a decision within a day or two, depending on the carrier.

4

Your rate locks in

Once the policy is issued, the premium is fixed. It does not increase as you age.

This is probably a fit if

  • You want your funeral costs covered without leaving it to your children
  • You'd rather not deal with a medical exam
  • You want a payment that stays the same for life
  • You've been turned down for other coverage before
  • You want something simple you can put in place this week

Free & no obligation

See your options in under two minutes.

Answer a few quick questions and a licensed agent will call you with real quotes for your age and coverage amount. No medical exam, no obligation.

Common questions

Is there a medical exam?

No. Final expense policies use a short list of health questions instead of an exam or bloodwork.

Can my rate go up later?

No. Once the policy is issued, the premium is fixed for the life of the policy as long as you keep paying it.

What if I've been declined before?

Many carriers offer options for people who have been turned down elsewhere, including plans with a graded benefit period. A licensed agent can tell you what you'd likely qualify for.

How much coverage do people usually take?

Most choose between $5,000 and $25,000. The right number depends on funeral costs where you live and any bills you want covered.
