Why do people buy Long Term Care Insurance?

 

Long Term Care planning is an important component of most people's overall financial plan.  With costs for a Home Health Aide averaging $18.65 an hour nationally, and a private room in a nursing home averaging $65,200 per year nationally, lack of this important protection could have a major impact on retirement planning. 

 

There are a lot of good reasons for purchasing Long Term Care Insurance.  When we asked our Mutual of Omaha policyholders why they feel a long-term care insurance policy is essential in today’s world, here’s what they told us:

 

· I know I’m getting older

· I want to stay at home

· I’ve seen what happens to people who don’t have it

· I don’t want my kids to take care of me

· I don’t want to spend my life savings on long-term care services

· I want to leave an inheritance for my kids

· It’s the smart thing to do

 

Some policyholders also said there’s one reason they almost didn’t buy a long-term care insurance policy: they thought it was more expensive than it really is. A Mutual Care long-term care insurance policy from Mutual of Omaha Insurance Company provides coverage to help pay for the services you need in the setting that’s right for you – whether in your home, an assisted living facility or a nursing home. The policy covers the essential long-term care services people use most often, and that means you don’t pay for a lot of extra features and benefits you may never need.

 

Long Term Care Insurance shoud be an integral part of planning for life, while, currently working or after retirement.  It has received unique tax status in the IRS code.  In addition, some states allow a deduction for premiums on state income tax returns as well.  Seldom does a benefit plan come along which offers so many advantages.
