Burial Insurance Quotes
To obtain a burial insurance quote, I will need to gather some answers about your general health
Burial insurance is similar to life insurance in the sense that the cost of the premium will be higher if your health is deteriorating and of course it will be based on your age.
Here is a list of common questions that most carriers will ask on an application:
1. Have you ever been diagnosed or treated by a member of the medical profession as having a terminal illness, Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), AIDS Related Complex (ARC), or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection?
2. Are you currently:
(a) Receiving hospice or home health care?
(b) Bedridden, confined to a hospital, nursing home, or other facility, or has confinement been
recommended by a member of the medical profession?
3. Have you ever been diagnosed or treated by a member of the medical profession as having Alzheimer’s disease or dementia?
4. In the past 12 months have you been diagnosed or treated by a member of the medical profession for internal cancer?
5. Have you been diagnosed with a terminal illness with less than 12 months to live?
If all answers in the following section are NO , most carriers would offer an Immediate Benefit Plan. A yes answer would probably get you a Graded life plan.
The following are other common follow up questions. Any Yes answers here would make you eligible for a Graded or a Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance Plan.

5. Have you been diagnosed or treated by a member of the medical profession as having:
(a) Diabetes before age 30, or suffered complications from diabetes such as neuropathy, retinopathy,
kidney or vascular problems

(b) Mental or nervous disorder
7. Within the past 2 years, have you been treated or counseled by a member of the medical profession for

A drawback of these plans is that, depending on your health and age, the premiums may fall outside the reach of those with limited income.
