Long-Term Care (LTC) insurance is important for people of all ages if they want to preserve financial security and independence in the event of an extended disability. And despite popular misconceptions, the need for long-term care insurance isn't just for the elderly as many working age adults have disabling illnesses and injuries as well. This benefit is designed to help you pay for care services, such as in home care or nursing home care. These expenses are typically not covered by health insurance, Medicare or Medicaid. Eligible employees can elect a monthly benefit $1,000 to $4,000 per month on a 3 year or 6 year plan. Employees can apply for a benefit once they are unable to perform the designated number of assisted daily living activies and the elimination period has passed. Employees should review the plan carefully.
