Q&A with Melissa Foster
How does a no-exam life insurance policy compare to a fully underwritten one?
Answer: No-exam life insurance offers a faster, simpler application without a medical exam, but it may have higher premiums and lower coverage amounts. Fully underwritten life insurance takes longer and may require a medical exam, but healthy applicants often qualify for lower rates and higher coverage. The best choice depends on your health, budget, and coverage needs. I’m happy to help you compare your options and find the right fit.
What happens to my life insurance if I change jobs?
Answer: If your life insurance is through your employer, it may end when you leave your job unless your plan allows you to keep it by converting or porting the policy. If you own an individual life insurance policy, changing jobs won’t affect your coverage as long as you continue paying the premiums.
What is final expense insurance and how is it different from regular life insurance?
Answer: Final expense insurance is a small whole life insurance policy designed to help cover funeral costs, medical bills, and other end-of-life expenses. Unlike traditional life insurance, it typically offers lower coverage amounts, is easier to qualify for, and is meant to ease the financial burden on your loved ones rather than replace income.
