Long Term Care Insurance



Long term care insurance is very recent type of coverage, created to meet the needs of a rapidly ageing population. Seventy-seven million people in this country will turn fifty over the next eighteen years. People in the United States are living longer lives, but with that comes an increased need for long term care, or some form of assisted living. Unfortunately, very few of those who are in critical need of long term care insurance even realize it.

Many people make the false assumption that their long term care insurance needs will be covered either by the government, in the form of Medicare or Medicaid, or by their existing health care plan. The reality is that, in most cases, neither of these will provide reliable coverage for anyone facing a serious illness or disability. Neither custodial care in a nursing home, nor assisted living in the private home, is covered by most Medicare or Medigap policies. Considering that a nursing home can cost between $36,000 and 60,000 a year, or that a registered nurse can cost up to $40/hour, it is easy to understand how dependence upon the government for long term care can quickly devastate even the most substantial savings. Nationwide, health care plans and Medicare combined cover only about 3% of the costs of long term care, and Medicaid only becomes applicable once you are impoverished. The sad truth is that, given the high costs associated with this kind of care, this can easily happen after only one year in a nursing home.

Texas Auto & Home Insurance does not want to let this happen to you or your spouse! If you are a healthy man or woman over the age of 50, and do not yet have long term health care insurance, the time to find a policy is now!
