If life insurance is considered part of an estate is that money used for medical bills and debt?
Life insurance is not considered part of an estate and is not available to pay the decedent's bills and debts. Even if there is no money whatsoever to pay bills, the insurance is not part of the estate. The only exception would be if there were no existing named beneficiaries or if the policy is payable to the estate. But even there, keep in mind that it isn't the "insurance" money that is now available to pay the debts. It is "estate" money, because the proceeds were payable to the estate. The Federal government will include life insurance proceeds as part of the gross estate for federal estate tax purposes, but that does not mean they are actually part of the estate.

Can the executor take a fee for the amount of life insurance benefits and annuities?
The answer will depend upon the laws of the state that has jurisdiction over the probate, and the manner in which the insurance/annuities were titled: 1. The probate law of the state will generally dictate how the executor may be paid in the absence of a provision in the Will addressing that. The court will rely upon what it determines as "reasonable", taking into account the size of the estate, the complexity of the issues involved, and other factors. 2. If the insurance/annuities were payable to the estate as beneficiary, and therefore became part of the estate, a stronger argument would exist to allow the executor a fee for their collection. In contrast, if they were payable directly to a named beneficiary, the executor would not have much involvement in their collection and it would be hard to justify a fee.
