Burial Insurance Service
Everest helps you compare and access burial insurance through trusted partner insurers — with a real advisor guiding you the whole way, available 24/7/365.
Choosing burial insurance shouldn't mean navigating multiple insurance company websites alone. Everest's burial insurance service connects you with an experienced advisor who compares options across trusted partners, answers your questions honestly, and helps you find coverage that actually fits your health, budget, and family's needs.
What Is Everest's Burial Insurance Service?
Everest is not an insurance company — Everest is a funeral concierge and planning service. Our burial insurance service exists to make one specific part of end-of-life planning easier: finding the right coverage without doing it alone.
When you reach out, you're connected with a licensed Everest advisor who can walk you through burial insurance (also called final expense insurance) options from trusted partner insurers, including Mutual of Omaha, IA American, and American Amicable. Instead of filling out separate applications and comparing fine print yourself, you get one conversation, real answers, and a clear side-by-side look at what's available to you.
Your advisor takes the time to understand your situation, budget, and coverage goals, then presents clear, side-by-side comparisons of available plans. This approach helps you easily evaluate premiums, benefits, and eligibility requirements without confusion or pressure. You’ll receive straightforward answers to your questions, guidance on selecting the right policy, and support throughout the entire process—making it simple, efficient, and stress-free to secure the coverage that best fits your needs.
What's Included When You Work With Everest
A dedicated advisor: One person to talk to not a call center who understands your situation and follows up with you directly.
Multi-insurer comparison: Options compared across several trusted insurance partners in a single conversation, instead of applying company by company.
Guidance on plan type: Help understanding whether a level-benefit, graded-benefit, or guaranteed-issue policy fits your health history and goals.
24/7/365 availability: Advisors are available any time, any day, with support in over 240 languages.
Beyond the policy: Access to free planning tools — Tenzing® secure document storage, Will Prep℠, and My Wishes — so the insurance piece fits into a complete plan, not a standalone purchase.
Is This Service Right for You?
Everest's burial insurance service is built for people who want guidance, not just a quote form. It tends to be the right fit if:
You're not sure which type of burial insurance policy fits your health situation.
You want to compare more than one insurer without filling out multiple applications.
You're helping a parent or family member look into coverage and want a second opinion.
You've been declined or worried about being declined elsewhere due to health history.
You want a plan that fits into broader end-of-life planning, not just a standalone policy
You'd rather talk to a person than navigate an insurance website alone

Burial Insurance Service — Frequently Asked Questions
Is Everest an insurance company?
No. Everest is a funeral concierge and planning service. Advisors help you compare and access burial insurance through licensed partner insurers, and support your family with planning tools beyond the policy itself.
Is this service free?
Yes. Talking to an Everest advisor and comparing options is free, with no obligation to purchase.
Do I need a medical exam?
Usually not. Most burial insurance options use either a few simplified health questions or no health questions at all (guaranteed-issue), depending on your health history and the plan.
Can Everest help if I've been declined by an insurer before?
Often, yes. Because advisors compare across multiple partners, a decline from one insurer doesn't necessarily rule out other options — an advisor can walk through alternatives.
How is this different from just getting a quote online?
An online quote tool gives you a number. An Everest advisor gives you context — helping you understand what type of policy fits your situation, what the waiting periods mean, and how the options compare, not just what they cost.
What other support does Everest provide besides insurance?
Everest also offers free tools including Tenzing® secure document storage, Will Prep℠, My Wishes end-of-life planning, and a post-funeral checklist for families — plus 24/7/365 advisor support for funeral planning generally, not just insurance.
