What is Cremation Insurance?

Cremation insurance is a specialized final expense policy designed to cover the specific costs of a cremation service, including the urn, transportation, and memorial ceremonies. It allows you to pre-plan your arrangements so your family isn't left making difficult financial decisions during their time of grief.

What Does Cremation Insurance Cover?

The Cremation Process

Professional fees for the crematory and necessary transportation.

Memorial Services

Funding for a celebration of life, flowers, and guest programs

Urn & Keepsakes

Types Of Cremation And Funeral Services

Insurance offers important advantages for families who want financial security and peace of mind

Traditional Funeral Service

A traditional funeral service typically involves embalming, viewing or visitation, a formal funeral ceremony, and burial or cremation. This service may be held in a church or funeral home and include music, readings, and eulogies.

Direct Cremation

Direct cremation is a simple and cost-effective option where the body is cremated shortly after death without a viewing or formal ceremony. The cremation ashes are then returned to the family.

Memorial Service

A memorial service can be held after cremation or burial and celebrates the person’s life. It may include music, readings, and eulogies, and the cremation ashes may be presented in an urn.

Green or Natural Burial

A green or natural burial is an eco-friendly option that involves burying the body without embalming or using a traditional casket. The body is placed in a biodegradable container or shroud and buried in a natural setting.

Veteran’s Funeral Services

Veterans are entitled to certain funeral benefits, including burial in a national cemetery, a flag-draped casket, and military honors.

Online Funeral Services

Some funeral homes offer online funeral services that allow family and friends to participate in a service remotely. This may include a virtual memorial service or a live stream of the funeral service.
