Your Lincoln Heritage policy
Understanding Lincoln Heritage / Funeral Advantage coverage
If your Lincoln Heritage policy is Funeral Advantage, have its benefit schedule ready. Some policies have modified benefits in the early years. Review your own contract before assuming when a particular benefit applies.

Your coverage questions
Lincoln Heritage: details worth checking
Start with the contract you actually have. These general explanations do not confirm an individual policy’s status or benefits.
What is Lincoln Heritage Funeral Advantage?
Lincoln Heritage describes Funeral Advantage as whole life insurance. Start with your own benefit schedule, issue date and premium—not the product name alone. Ask whether your documents describe immediate or modified benefits, and what would be payable during any initial limited-benefit period. Our independent agents can discuss life insurance terms and available coverage options; Lincoln Heritage confirms its individual policy records.
- Find the benefit schedule and policy issue date.
- Separate insurance benefits from any funeral-planning services.
- Ask the insurer to confirm any contract-specific uncertainty.
Payments, policy changes or a claim?
Use Lincoln Heritage’s official policyholder resources for account transactions, service forms and claims. My Policy Help Desk cannot log in to that portal, post a payment or change carrier records. For a coverage conversation with our agency, keep your benefit summary and the questions you want to discuss nearby. Keep account passwords and security codes private.
Lincoln Heritage official policyholder service (external website)Insurance benefits and funeral-planning assistance
Lincoln Heritage describes Funeral Advantage as life insurance with a death benefit for the beneficiary, alongside access to Personal Funeral Advisor assistance. Planning help is separate from the insurance payment; it is not an additional cash benefit or a guarantee of funeral prices. Check your policy materials for the services available to your family. My Policy Help Desk does not provide Lincoln Heritage’s funeral-planning services.

Before you call
A few things
worth knowing.
Clear answers, from the start.
Is this Lincoln Heritage customer service?
No. Calls reach My Policy Help Desk’s licensed insurance agents. We are an independent agency, not Lincoln Heritage. We discuss life insurance questions and available options; we cannot access carrier accounts, take carrier payments, change carrier records or process claims.
What should I review on a Funeral Advantage policy?
Look at the benefit schedule, issue date and any modified-benefit provisions in your own documents. Not every policy has the same early-year benefits. Our agents can discuss information you provide; Lincoln Heritage determines official policy status and claim benefits.
Does a Funeral Advantage policy pay a funeral home automatically?
Lincoln Heritage describes Funeral Advantage as life insurance with a death benefit for the beneficiary. That is not the same as a funeral-home contract or a guarantee of funeral prices. Check your own policy and any assignment documents. Lincoln Heritage must confirm how a particular claim or assignment will be handled.
Can another agency increase my existing Lincoln Heritage benefit?
Not by changing Lincoln Heritage’s records. Ask Lincoln Heritage or your authorized servicing agent about changes to that contract. Our independent agency can separately discuss additional life insurance products an agent is licensed and authorized to offer, subject to the new insurer’s eligibility and coverage limits.
Where can my family find Funeral Advantage planning instructions?
Lincoln Heritage says policy materials include a personalized card with instructions for policy benefits and Personal Funeral Advisor services. Keep those instructions where your loved ones can find them. If they are missing, use Lincoln Heritage’s official policyholder resources. My Policy Help Desk cannot retrieve your carrier account or arrange a funeral.
Does Funeral Advantage require a particular funeral home?
Lincoln Heritage states that Funeral Advantage is not affiliated with a particular funeral home or funeral approach. Its Personal Funeral Advisors are also separate from funeral homes. Follow the instructions in your policy materials for that assistance; our independent agency discusses life insurance questions and available coverage options, not funeral arrangements.
Can I ask about additional coverage without cancelling my policy?
Yes. A conversation with our agency does not change or cancel your coverage. Ask whether keeping your current policy and adding coverage could fit your needs. A replacement may involve new underwriting, costs or benefit limitations. Do not cancel existing coverage just because you have applied for another policy; confirm the new policy and its effective date first.
What should I compare besides the monthly premium?
Compare the death benefit, how long coverage lasts, whether premiums can change, any initial benefit limits, exclusions and riders. For a policy with illustrated values, distinguish contractual guarantees from non-guaranteed projections. Your documents and the issuing insurer establish the terms; an advertised price alone is not a complete comparison.
Is there any obligation to buy?
No. You can ask life insurance questions without committing to buy or change coverage. If you choose to explore another policy, ask about its costs, eligibility requirements and coverage terms before deciding.
What should I have ready for the conversation?
Have your policy or coverage summary and the questions you want to discuss nearby. We work from information you provide; we do not log in to carrier accounts. Do not share account passwords or one-time security codes.
Can you check a payment, policy status or claim?
No. Contact your carrier using the details on your policy or its official website for payment confirmation, official policy status, account changes and claims. Our independent agency can separately discuss life insurance questions and available coverage options.
