NEWSFLASH – THE PENDING LONG-TERM CARE INSURANCE TAX MAY IMPACT YOU

Multiple states, including California, are considering following Washington State's lead in taxing those who do not own a Long-Term Care Insurance policy.

 

NEED FOR LTC INSURANCE

The primary need for Long Term Care Insurance is the expense for Dementia/Alzheimers, as the impairment can last from eight to twenty 20 years. The average cost of a private room in a San Francisco Skilled Nursing Facility is $15,000 a month. Premiums escalate with age and decline in health. Medicare and Private Medical Insurance provide minimal benefits. Forty percent (40%) of those receiving care are aged 18 to 64 due to car accidents, illness, injury, and disability.

 

POLICY DESIGN

A policy that pays for lifetime benefits for two insureds. A policy that pays a death benefit exceeding the premium paid if LTC is never needed. A policy that guarantees cash values and a gain. A policy that provides loans against the cash surrender value at a 4% net cost.

 

COVERAGE

Adult Day Care, Assisted Living Facility, Home Health Care, Hospice Care, Respite Care, International coverage.

 

FUNDING LONG-TERM CARE PREMIUMS – HIGH NET WORTH INDIVIDUALS
