Confused by insurance jargon? You're not alone. Here is a simple guide to understanding Final Expense insurance and how it protects your family.
Final Expense insurance (sometimes called "Burial Insurance" or "Funeral Insurance") is a type of permanent life insurance designed to cover the specific costs your family will face when you pass away.
Unlike massive million-dollar policies meant to replace income for 20 years and require full medical exams, Final Expense policies are smaller (usually $5,000 to $50,000) and easier to qualify for. They are built to ensure your loved ones aren't stuck paying for a funeral out of their own pockets.
The most important decision you will make is choosing between Term Life and Whole Life. At Asurgo, we specialize in Whole Life because it offers permanent protection for seniors.

| Cash Value | Builds cash value | No cash value |
The monthly payment you make to keep your insurance active. With Asurgo, this amount never changes.
The person (child, spouse, or relative) who will receive the money tax-free when you pass away.
The total cash amount paid to your beneficiary. This can be used for funerals, debts, or anything else.
The process the insurance company uses to decide if they can insure you. We use "simplified underwriting," meaning no medical exams.
