Understanding Your Options.
What is Long Term Care Insurance?
Long term care insurance is used to protect your savings from the high cost of the personal care you may someday need. This need for care may be due to an accident, injury, cognitive impairment or frailty from advancing age and is the single greatest uninsured financial risk facing Americans today.
Long term care includes a large array of services to assist you with your personal activities of daily living. These services can easily cost $50,000 to $100,000 per year or more.
Long Term Care Is Not What You Think!
You have choices. Most care is received at home not the nursing home.
How Does A Long Term Care Policy Work?
Policies pay a benefit when you need long term care.
