Combined coverage to help protect what matters the most when it’s needed the most.

Here's what you need to know

Protecting your loved ones is one of life’s greatest responsibilities. When a family loses someone, in addition to grief, survivors may suddenly be faced with costly expenses and debts and even a loss of income. You may also, at any point in your life, need long-term care services, which could cost hundreds of dollars per day. Many families would have trouble paying for living expenses if they lost their primary earner.

 

Life Insurance with Long-Term Care combines the benefits of long-term care with life insurance which can be utilized for long-term care, home healthcare, adult day care, or assisted living. Many people have concerns about protecting their family's future should something happen to them. Adding to these concerns is the likelihood that they will need long-term care.

  • Won’t the federal government pay for my long-term care?

    Medicare provides minimal financial support for LTC services. Medicare was designed to pay for acute medical conditions and post-rehabilitative care; it was not intended to pay for costs associated with LTC. To qualify for nursing home care under Medicare, a three-day hospital stay is required, and care must be rehabilitative in nature. If these conditions are met, Medicare will pay for the first 20 days. Days 21-100 require a co-payment. There is no coverage after day 100.
