Long Term Care Insurance
Long Term Care Insurance by Genworth Life
Long Term Care insurance helps people live as independently and safely as possible when they can no longer perform everyday activities on their own (e.g. walking, eating, bathing). This type of insurance may provides protection for families from some of the the financial and emotional burdens of the rising costs of long-term care. Coverage for care in non-institutional settings, such as assisted living, adult day care, and in-home care, is also available.
What is Long Term Care Insurance
You could need long term care because of an accident, illness, cognitive impairment or simply due to aging. Unless you have experienced the financial and emotional impact of long-term care services, you may not be aware of the need or the cost of such services. Costs for facility care or a home health aide can be significant. Long Term Care Insurance can help.
Long term care insurance provides a “safety net” to help you afford long term care if you experience the need for care. With this insurance coverage, you decide the level of long term care coverage you wish to purchase.
The coverage includes a monthly maximum benefit and a lifetime maximum benefit. The cost of this coverage depends on the coverage level you choose and your age when you apply.
