You don't pay medical bills if you're in the military. Healthcare is free for you and your family. If you die on Active Duty, your family gets death benefits and your SGLI (life insurance).

Yes. ANY death, regardless of cause, with the only exception being death caused by a capital punishment execution being carried out as required by the military.
Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) typically does not provide coverage for suicide within the first two years of the policy. After this initial period, coverage for suicide is generally included, meaning beneficiaries would receive the death benefit. However, specific circumstances and policy details can vary, so it's essential to review the terms of the policy or consult with a military benefits advisor for accurate information.
If they're killed in the line of duty, and their mother is listed as the beneficiary on their SGLI policy, then yes. You don't get paid simply for being the parent of a service member, though.
Your question is incomplete. That being said, we'll try to anticipate where you were going with it, and give an answer based on that anticipation. Assuming you're referring to the girlfriend of a veteran, they're not entitled to anything. No educational benefits, no SGLI benefits, nothing. A spouse or child would be; a boyfriend or girlfriend is not. If the girlfriend is the veteran, she is entitled to benefits - her boyfriend (or girlfriend, if applicable) would not be.
It depends on the service members situation. If he has SGLI the insurance is paid at whatever the servicemember signed up for. If he is married and/or has children there are several benefit programs available and a Casualty Assistance Officer will be assigned to help the survivng widow and children through the entire process. If you are a benefit survivor and have not been contacted go to your local recruiters office and have them get you the info you need to get started.
If you were on his life insurance policy and he was military, they will be contacting you. No worries. You would simply contact the SGLI claims department and file a claim, or at the least find out who is in fact a beneficiary. Try this link for a link to VA Affairs and a phone number. They will point you in the right direction. http://www.military.com/Finance/content/0,15356,165322,00.html
