Forget the cost - that's postgres *model* of the combined IO+CPU.
If the model is off, that's may cause bad plans and could be looked into
further.
In any case, that index cut your runtime from 75sec to 60sec (in spite of the
modelled cost).
It looks like you resolved the bad estimate on the users table?

How big is the table ? And curract_state_isfinal_app_idx ?
Have these been reindexed (or pg_repacked) recently?
It seems to me that the remaining query optimization is to improve this:

I think you could consider clustering (or repacking) the table on
curract_state_isfinal_app_idx (but you'll have to judge if that's okay and
won't negatively affect other queries).
But, what's your target runtime ? Improvements here could cut at most 15sec
off the total 60sec. If you're hoping to save more than that, you'll need to
(also) look further than the query:
- postgres parameters: what are shared_buffers, work_mem, effective_cache_size ?
+ https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Server_Configuration
- are there other DBs/applications running on the server/VM ?
- kernel tuning (readahead, VM parameters, write cache, scheduler, THP, etc)
- server hardware (what OS? storage? RAM? filesystem?)
- how does the storage perform outside of postgres?
+ something like this: /usr/sbin/bonnie++ -f -n0 -x4 -d /var/lib/pgsql
