Understanding Long-Term Care
Long-term care insurance helps pay for care when individuals need help with daily living activities and can no longer perform their personal health or care needs themselves. Long-term care may be something you plan for and happens over time, or it may happen suddenly due to a health event like a stroke.
There are a variety of different options to consider for long-term care insurance including if you’d prefer home-based care or community and residential care, and deciding what would make you most comfortable. You should assess your and your family’s medical history, and speak with your doctor to understand your health today, and what to plan for in the future.
