Who has the best rates for a graded benefit on Final Expense? Not gaurantee issue.

Also, Who do you guys use for your regular Final expense. I am thinking of using Monumental? Any bad things about them? THey also have a nice fast start recognition program.

I have a client that is insulin dependent diabetic. Is there a company that would be best for diabetics?

Oxford will accept insulin if they started using after age 50. I have yet to find anyone with lower rates. American Amicable is also a good choice - they also have a graded policy.

I work with a G.A. in Northern California. Good guy and knows the market. He represents a bunch of carriers.

Columbian Life has some pretty good rates and from my experience they beat American Amicables; but you can almost pretty much cover almost anybody with AA. I wrote a lady that had full blown aids on american amicables graded policy. As far as final expense rates go though no one right now beats Oxfords but they are little more tight on the underwriting.

My GA for Oxford and AA is ADR Marketing, Alan Rooke. You can reach him at (530) 477-1111. He has a toll free number but I never use it. His email is ADRMRKTNG@aol.com. You can however go to Oxford directly but I get the same commission and Alan is a good guy.

Monumental is ok for non-graded plans.

I know that Assurant is cheaper when it comes to graded policies.

In NC no graded life can ask ANY health questions. So the only one I know of that I can offer is Presidential Life... I wish I had more options

He's joking with you. Street level is somewhere around 105%. You can contact Oxford directly or use a GA. See my prior posts for the guy I use.

However, they won't write anyone on disability, so for your people with bad backs that qualify for Medicare under age 65, you'll have to look elsewhere. Also, they only have one plan - either you qualify or you don't. Have a second choice when you see a prospect.

Transamerica is a major player for final expense. That seems to be the main company PPMG recommends.

I think Presidential has good rates for graded benefit, but there are some others out there too.

When I was looking into carriers for Final Expense I considered Transamerica. They pay a very high commission, I think 130% was offered to me without any prior production or promises. However, this was reflected in their rates which were not even close to reasonable. Maybe things have changed.

I'm happy knowing that the few policies I write are with a low-cost carrier. I'd be embarrassed if someone said they could get the same thing from another agent at 30% less premium (Transamerica vs. Oxford).

Keep in mind, I'm not active in the Final Expense market and things may have changed.

So I guess this is your answer to your question about offering the life plan with the lowest premiums.
