What You Need to Know about Long-Term Care Insurance

[Kunde]

Long-term care insurance is a kind of insurance that helps pay for care provided to you at home in long term. It's meant to help you pay for help with activities of daily living, such as eating, bathing and toileting. In some cases, assisted living can be included in your policy. There are several types of long-term care insurance, including extensions and additions, lifetime policies and limited-purpose policies. All of these options are available when purchasing a long-term care insurance plan.

A parent might need help caring for their child after a stroke or accident causes them difficulty walking or eating. Or a person might need help with emergency response following a fall and break from work. Other people may need long-term care when they move into an assisted living facility or nursing home. No one wants to think about needing help with daily living when they're young, but it's inevitable.

Many consumers purchase long-term care insurance as an additional layer of protection against unexpected health expenses. They check your health status to make sure you're physically ready for the costs associated with long-term care. This includes an exam and tests on your strength, flexibility and movement, memory, nutrition and more.

Purchasing a long-term care policy is a wise financial decision that can save you money in the future. You can also submit claims for covered services through an easy appeals process should any problems arise. Choosing to have insurance cover the cost of long-term care is one of the smartest decisions anyone has ever made.
