Will I really need Long Term Care insurance?

It's human nature to believe your health will not change. On the other hand the risk of needing assistance is high, whether it happens tomorrow or later in life from frailties, so no one can say they won't need help. Some points about needing help:

  • The American Society of Aging (ASA) reports 60% to 70% of Americans 65 or older will require long term services and support at some time.
  • An individuals family is impacted in a significant way emotionally when they have to be care givers for a long period. There is also a financial impact on care givers.

The more important question to think about is - where will funds come from to pay for very expensive but needed assistance?

The answer! Take action today. The premium to buy Long Term Care insurance will be small in comparison to the size of the pool of funds, which is normally set up to grow large over time, available to pay for professional assistance.

     Note: A couple years ago many people may of thought, if an unexpected need for help develops, they would just pay. Today savings and home equity are lower and people have fears about what their finances will be in the future. Thus, spending some money for Long Term Care insurance in Connecticut to protect these finances is even more important

Does it cost a lot?

The premium is based on your age and your health when you buy plus the size of the benefit pool you select. The amount of premium is also affected by two big factors:

  • First - professional long term services and support are very expensive in Connecticut, some of the highest in the country.
  • Second - the probability is high, as the ASA reports, help will be needed.
