One day you or your spouse may need long-term care (LTC) services. Almost 70 percent of adults age 65 will need long-term care (LTC) in their lifetime. 20 percent will require LTC for more than 5 years1. If you’re among them, will you have the financial resources to keep you in your home? To get the kind of care you desire, plan ahead for the expense of home health care, assisted living and nursing home care.
Asset-based long-term care protection
This protection can help you prepare for your future and protect your retirement with:
- Premiums to fit your budget. You can pay all at once, over 10 years, over 20 years or over your lifetime to suit your budget.
- Income-tax free benefits to help pay for home health care, extended care, nursing home stays and more.
- Single and joint life coverage to cost effectively cover two people.
Different than traditional long-term care insurance
Unlike traditional LTC insurance, Asset-based protection offers:
- Premiums guaranteed to never increase, ensuring your peace of mind
- A guaranteed death benefit for your loved ones if LTC is never needed
- Guaranteed cash value growth, returned to you if you choose
- Optional lifetime LTC benefits
