Funeral Directors Life Insurance Company

Directors Choice Assignment Services, a sister company of FDLIC's, offers fast advance payment when families wish to pay for funeral services with assignable life insurance. As Directors Choice has grown, so has our ability to serve as a convenient resource to our clients.

Directors Choice can be used as a vital tool for many of our customers. We can assist with not only assignments, but with valuable information. We keep a database as well as claims forms on file which are available to FDLIC's clients, whether they use Directors Choice or not. When it comes to filing for benefits, we are here as an advisor and a resource to FDLIC clients.

What may seem initially like a simple process of filing a life insurance claim can quickly become a tangled mess. An insurance company may sell to another company several times. By the time a claim is filed on the policy, a funeral home must sometimes jump through many hoops and battle through layers of red tape to figure out where the policy landed and to get paid. Directors Choice maintains current records on which company currently holds another company's original policy. That's only one example of the kind of information Directors Choice can provide upon request.

Directors Choice can also, of course, take on the assignment and immediately forward the proceeds of the policy upon verification of benefits. Payment can be made by direct deposit or by check. Families really appreciate the peace of mind they have when they know it's all been taken care of. In many cases, they can even receive the balance of the policy above the cost of the funeral.
