Many funeral homes if not most allow their families to assign insurance proceeds for payment of goods and services. Accepting insurance assignments as a form of payment in these economic times is crucial. However, accepting assignments can be costly and time consuming. The average time to collect an assignment is between 30 to 60 days. Some assignments can take months with pending death certificates, medical examiner and or police reports.
C&J’s mission is to relieve the funeral industry of the hassle, headache and cash flow delay of processing insurance death claims by providing the fastest funding possible while offering the friendliest, most knowledgeable and courteous customer service available. C&J’s FAST FUNDING Program is designed to pay funeral homes and cemeteries within 24 hours of verification on their assignment cases, eliminating the issues associated with processing insurance death claims.
A unique balance of funeral service professionals, insurance marketing executives and life insurance claims managers gives C&J an unparalleled understanding of the insurance assignment funding business and the challenges that funeral homes and families face in dealing with life insurance benefits.
C&J has processed more than 100,000 death claims and funded nearly 500 million dollars to funeral homes and cemeteries throughout the U.S., District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. For more information on C&J visit http://www.AssignmentFunding.com.
