Term life is an affordable version of insurance offered. It provides temporary coverage for the agreed period (or “term”) and converts to a death benefit should you pass away during the term of the cover. You can be insured for terms of 10,15, 20, or 30 years with amounts from $5,000 to over $5,000,000.
Whole life insurance, on the other hand, provides permanent coverage. These policies will also accumulate cash value against which you can borrow to offset living expenses.
You can also obtain final expense insurance, which has both whole life and death benefits. As a senior you can use a final expense insurance policy to cover funeral expenses and any outstanding debts, so as not to leave your family with a financial burden.
SelectQuote earns money by charging the insurance company a commission for selling you a policy—at no cost to you.
Term life insurance quotes range from 10 to 30 years with coverage ranging between $5,000 and $5,000,000. The coverage amount will depend on your health, age, and lifestyle. Many term life policies will require a medical examination. However, they are convertible into a whole life policy or renewable for another term without you having to undergo an additional medical exam.
Whole life insurance policies are permanent and cover you for life. The cash value may be borrowed against, tax-free, or withdrawn early under certain circumstances.
Riders are additional insurance options or benefits that enhance available life insurance policies, including extending coverage to your children or accessing your funds early. SelectQuote riders vary based on the insurance partner and coverage option—your SelectQuote licensed sales agent will help you to make a choice.

You can lodge a claim upon maturity of your policy with the insurance partner that issued it. To do this, complete a policy discharge form, enclosing the required documentation, and submit it a few weeks before the policy matures. Payment will be made to your indicated account. In the case of death of the policy owner, the named beneficiary makes the claim by submitting a certified copy of the death certificate. The law in many states allows insurance carriers up to 30 days to review a death claim, then decide to honor, deny, or query it.
