Long-Term Care Insurance

You’ve worked your career building a retirement nest egg and possibly an estate for your heirs. Unfortunately, an extended need for home healthcare services or a nursing home stay can dramatically reduce any savings you may have accumulated. The cost for long-term care will come from you, as Medicare may only provide for a limited benefit, if care is needed. Therefore, you may wish to consider participating in the Long-Term Care Insurance Program administered by Treloar & Heisel, Inc.

Some plan features include:

  • Daily benefit amounts up to $300 per day
  • Benefits for nursing home and home healthcare
  • Choice of elimination and benefit periods
  • Limited payment options (10-year and 20-year)
  • Cost of living rider
  • Premium discounts available.
