Hey insurance professionals, caregivers, and planners 

Navigating life insurance options for patients undergoing dialysis can be incredibly challenging. Between frequent treatments, high medical costs, and strict underwriting standards, many traditional policies are simply out of reach.

That's why I wanted to open up a conversation about burial insurance for dialysis patients, especially the rise of guaranteed issue plans. I recently reviewed Burial Senior Insurance's guide and it offers a clear path for families seeking peace of mind without the stress of medical exams or health screenings.

Here's what stood out:

Guaranteed Acceptance
No medical exams. No health questions. Just basic personal info and a waiting period (typically 2 years) before full benefits kick in.

Coverage for Final Expenses
Policies are designed to cover funeral costs, outstanding medical bills, probate fees, and even small debts—ensuring families aren't left scrambling.

Affordable Options
Despite the high-risk profile, there are plans tailored to different budgets, making it accessible for seniors and those with chronic conditions.

Let's discuss:

  • Have you helped clients on dialysis secure burial insurance? What worked?
  • How do you explain the graded benefit period to families without causing concern?
  • Are there providers or policy structures you've found especially helpful?

Whether you're an agent, a family member, or someone managing dialysis yourself, your insights could help others make informed, compassionate decisions.
