Long Term Care expenses are typically covered inadequately by traditional medical insurance plans including Medicare and Medicaid. Long Term Care or LTC insurance is designed to bridge the gap in coverage. Long Term Care Insurance insurance provides payment for assistance if you need help with basic Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). ADLs include bathing, dressing or moving around your home. Long Term Care insurance would also usually cover degenerative conditions such as a stroke or cognitive impairment like Alzheimer's Disease. Long Term Care Insurance policies have evolved to cover assistance whether it is within your home, within a nursing home or within an assisted living facility.

People live longer and longer these days. The average life expectancy in the United States is around 78 years old and continues to improve due primarily to advances in public health, nutrition and medicine. That's good news. However, that means there are more years where you are at risk of serious health problems. Over seventy percent of Americans think long term care insurance is unnecessary. A recent study conducted by the U.S. Department of Health noted that by the time people reach the age of 65, more than 40% risk the need to live in a nursing home. Poor exercise, overeating and smoking can increase the percentage or likelihood. LTC costs can add up very quickly and consume your retirement funds if you do not plan properly. Long Term Care is not just for the elderly. While most people who need long-term care are age 65 or older, a person can need long-term care services at any age. Almost forty (40) percent of people currently receiving long-term care are between the ages of 18 and 64 years old.

The best time to buy long term care insurance is when you are in your middle ages. This should be at a time when you are best eligible and your premiums are lower. Start too early and you may pay premiums for many years on a policy that you don't need for many years. Waiting too long may cause you to become ineligible or develop a pre-existing condition that could elevate your rates. The timing is a personal choice based on your health and life circumstances. If you are nearing your golden years, you should consider your Long Term Care insurance needs now. Long-term care policies contain strict restrictions and limitations on benefits. Be sure to read your policy carefully and seek the advice of a specialist, attorney and agent if you do not fully understand the terms.
