Faith,
Good news. Your long-term care (LTC) insurance quotes are ready.
π First-look quotes
Only one insurer offers policies under age 30. I used 5% annual benefit growth to keep pace with rising LTC costs. Coverage starts immediately and lasts for your lifetime. More than half of us will need care and if that time comes, your benefits will last for a set number of years. This policy covers home care, assisted living, memory care, nursing care, and more. I chose 3 years of benefits, but we could extend this if you'd like.
π§ My notes
π Graph of benefits
This graph shows your projected benefits and LTC costs in Arkansas when you turn 80, though your benefits can begin whenever care is needed. On average, men need care for 2.2 years and women for 3.7 years, but Alzheimerβs and other memory care can extend beyond 8 years. For more detail, click the line.
Long-term care costs
Assisted-living in Arkansas is projected to cost $490,000/year when you turn 80 (assuming 4% annual growth). But your policy doesn't have to cover everything. Assisted-living already includes housing and meals, and any steady income, like Social Security, can bridge the gap that your policy doesn't cover. The goal for most people is meaningful coverage, not paying every dollar.
If youβd like higher or lower benefits, I can adjust your premium, benefit length, or payment schedule. Just let me know your goals.
