Long-term care insurance is a type of insurance designed to cover the costs associated with long-term care services, which are not typically covered by regular health insurance or government programs like Medicare. These services include assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, eating, and mobility, as well as medical care provided in various settings including at home, in assisted living facilities, or in nursing homes.

​Many of us worry about who will take care of us if something happens, and no one wants to be a burden. Your Long Term Care Insurance benefits can be used to pay for Home Health Care, Assisted Living Facilities, Adult Day Care, and Nursing Homes.  In fact, 72% of all LTC claims are paid for Home Health Care. This service is where an aide comes into your home to help with your Activities of Daily Living and also provides help with cooking and cleaning.  Long Term Care Insurance will help ensure you will be able to stay in your own home to receive care.

By planning ahead with long-term care insurance, individuals can protect their savings and assets, reduce the burden on family members, and ensure access to quality care when it's needed most.
