Aging Gracefully: Plan for Long-Term Care with Confidence
What is Long Term Care?
Long-term care (LTC) refers to a variety of support services designed to help individuals live as independently and safely as possible when they are no longer able to do so.
Long-term care coverage can provide an additional source of funds to help pay for support services.

Many people assume long-term care takes place only in a nursing home. While some care is provided in facility settings, most long-term care begins at home. With thoughtful planning, you may have greater flexibility and access to funding options for services such as:
Home Care
Receive care in the comfort of your own home or the home of a family member or friend.
Community Living
Pay for caregiving facilities such as adult day care and continuing care retirement communities for individuals who are active and able to live on their own.
Facility Care
Fund options for assisted living or full custodial care services.
