What is Long Term Care Insurance?
Commonly referred
to as LTC. long term care covers a range of health, medical and
support services for people with degenerative conditions such as Parkinson's
disease, or conditions resulting from a stroke, or a prolonged illness
like cancer or a cognitive disorder such as Alzheimer's. While an
early (LTC) long term care policy resembled a basic Medicare supplement
policy, long term care insurance present day has evolved and typically
covers a wide range of services to include: assisted living facilities,
nursing home care, and adult day care. Maine long term care is not
necessarily medical care but rather "custodial care" that
involves providing an individual with assistance in the activities
of routine daily living, or the supervision of someone who is cognitively
impaired. LTC or long term care insurance has been around in one form
or another since the early days of Medicare, but the policies of years
ago bear little resemblance to today's policies.

Who Should Consider Maine Long Term Care
Insurance?
Like most insurance products, long term care
insurance allows the insured to pay an affordable premium to protect
against the costs of an unaffordable medical event that could produce
tens of thousands or more in hospital or post care costs. While Maine
financial planners often refer to long term care insurance as a form
of "asset protection", most Maine individuals will need
to have assets worth protecting to justify paying policy premiums.
Eventually Medicaid pays for Maine long term care services once
an individual is unable to pay. In other words, if you can pay long
term care insurance premiums without altering your lifestyle too much,
you should consider transferring the risk to an insurance company
who will then cover the extended medical care services you might require
while your own assets are protected.

baby. Daily activities related to the care of an adult are even
more intensified and as a result become very expensive. Quality
