Long Term Care Insurance

Anyone with even a passing experience with Alzheimer's, stroke, Parkinson's or elder frailty can appreciate the severity and financial devastation of these all-too-common life events and the inevitable care required. This is why we want protection.

By 2030, one in five Americans will be a senior citizen. If you are a Baby Boomer, this includes you. Americans are living longer and healthier, thanks to better diet, better medical care and safer living & working environments. Yet no one is immune to the effects of aging and longevity - effects that often result in reduced physical or mental ability.

In 1994, 7.3 million Americans needed long term care (LTC) services at an average cost of nearly $43,800 per year. By 2000, this number rose to 9 million Americans at nearly $55,750 per year. It's currently near $75,000 per year. By 2030 those needing LTC will skyrocket to 23+ million Americans, with projected, individual long term care costs reaching $300,000 annually per individual!
