Insights and Tips for LTCI Policyholders
Here are the three things we wish everyone knew about their long-term care policies:
Don’t Be Afraid to Use Your Policy!
Your benefit period can last longer than what is printed on your policy depending on how you use it and you can use it for short periods following surgery, Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis, or dire medical situations.
Consult Us or Another Expert if You Receive a Premium Increase Letter
Rate increase letters are incredibly confusing and it can be difficult to determine the best option for you and your family. If you get rate premium increase letters, contact us! We are happy to share insights and make suggestions gleaned from working with hundreds of policies.
There are many things you can do besides cancel or lower the policy benefit. We specialize in long-term care partnership and underwriting, ensuring that your LTCI policy remains viable and affordable.
Explore Additional Policy Benefits
Policies can include money for home modifications, monthly cash payments, and more but they are buried and can take an expert eye to find. We have experienced the confusion of using long-term care insurance with our own families — it is one reason we decided to provide at-home senior care so that we can assist you and your family.
