How Diabetic Burial Insurance Works
Burial (final expense) insurance is usually a small whole life policy that pays a set benefit to your beneficiaries. It is intended to cover funeral and final expenses — and it’s often easier to qualify for than traditional life policies if you have diabetes.
Underwriting & Diabetes
Traditional life underwriting looks at A1C, insulin usage, complications, and overall health. Final expense policies commonly use simplified underwriting or guaranteed issue options — which means fewer questions and no bloodwork.

Who Can Qualify?
Even with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, many applicants qualify. Common qualifying situations include:
- Type 2 diabetes managed with oral medications or insulin
- Type 1 diabetes (approval varies by age, complications)
- Individuals with higher A1C (many carriers do not require A1C values)
- Seniors seeking guaranteed-issue options
Note: For complex cases (dialysis, recent hospitalization), guaranteed acceptance plans can still provide a solution — albeit sometimes with a graded benefit period. Learn more about guaranteed plans here.
