Long-Term Care with Life Insurance

Long-Term Care with Life Insurance provides lifelong protection with flexible premiums. It is one policy with two benefits - life insurance coverage and long-term care benefits if you need them.

As life insurance, this plan protects your family with money that can be used any way they choose. It is most often used to pay for mortgage or rent, education for children and grandchildren, retirement, family debt, and final expenses.

Program Highlights

• Elect coverage for yourself, spouse, registered domestic partners, and dependents.
• Flexible permanent insurance designed to last a lifetime.
• Benefits for long-term care services such as home health or nursing home care - you can access 4% of the selected life benefit per month if you need long-term care.
• Death Benefit is guaranteed 100% when it is needed most – during the working years when a family is relying on income. While the policy is in force, the death benefit is guaranteed for the longer of 25 years or through age 70.
• Even after age 70, when income is less relied upon, the death benefit is guaranteed to never be less than 50% of the original death benefit, up to $50,000.

You pay for this benefit conveniently through payroll deduction.

Long-term care coverage provides peace of mind knowing you won't become a burden to loved ones if you become ill. While it's true that Medicare may cover some long-term care costs, Medicare's coverage can be very limited. Long-term care coverage is the best way to protect yourself and your financial assets.

• Seniors aged 65 have a nearly 70% chance of needing long-term care services in their future¹

• The plan includes a Terminal Illness Benefit Rider which accelerates 50% of the death benefit amount, up to $100,000, if you are diagnosed as terminally ill with 12 months or less to live and your coverage has been in place for at least two years.
• The plan also includes an Extension of Benefits Rider which extends the same monthly Life Insurance with Long-Term Care benefit for up to an additional 25 months, doubling the value.
• The plan is portable, meaning you can take this with you, at the same rate, if you change jobs or retire.
• Life insurance premiums will never increase and are guaranteed through age 100. After age 100 no premium is due.

• Premiums are based on age - the younger you are when you enroll, the more benefit you receive for the same premium.
• During this enrollment period only, you have a special opportunity to elect coverage, without answering medical questions. 

• The state of Washington implemented the first public long-term care program funded through an additional payroll tax for all working residents. A California task force is considering a payroll tax of up to 4% of your income with a private insurance opt-out. Life Insurance with Long-Term Care may satisfy the state's requirements for tax exemption. There are 25+ additional states that may follow Washington’s lead in creating a payroll tax for all working residents.

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents.
