Why long-term care coverage matters
Protect Your Savings From Rising Care Costs
Most health or Medicare plans don’t cover extended care needs like daily living assistance or custodial support. Long-term care insurance helps pay for those services, preserving your savings and giving you freedom to choose where and how you receive care.

Common questions about long-term care insurance
Comprehensive answers for confident planning
At what age should I consider long-term care insurance?
Most experts recommend reviewing options in your 50s or early 60s, before health issues make approval harder or premiums higher. Buying earlier can lock in lower rates and broader benefit options.
What kinds of care does long-term insurance pay for?
It covers custodial care for daily activities like bathing, dressing, and eating, as well as skilled care in facilities or at home. We help clarify which settings and services each policy includes.
What affects the cost of long-term care coverage?
Premiums depend on age, health, benefit amount, elimination period, and how long you want coverage to last. Inflation protection riders can increase premiums but maintain value over time. We’ll model several scenarios so you can choose confidently.
Are benefits paid directly to the provider or to me?
Some policies reimburse expenses, while others pay a fixed daily or monthly benefit directly to you. We’ll help you understand how your chosen plan handles claims and payouts.
What if I never need long-term care?
Hybrid policies combine life insurance with long-term care benefits, so funds are used one way or another. If you never use care, your beneficiaries receive a death benefit. We can show you both standalone and hybrid options so your premiums never feel wasted.
