1. “The two most important driving forces for the federal budget are the aging of the U.S. population and rapidly rising health- care costs.” - Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke A Long Term Care Benefit Plan is the conversion of an in-force life insurance policy into a pre-funded, irrevocable Benefit Account that is professionally administered with payments made monthly on behalf of the individual receiving care. This option extends the time a person would remain private pay and delays their entry onto Medicaid.

2. “In the coming decades, many Americans will not have a way to pay for long-term care services. As the population is aging, the need for long-term care services is exploding. However, as the need for services increases, government funding will not be able to keep up, undermining a critical component of the nation’s health care delivery system.” –The Long Term Care Funding Crisis Milliman Consulting

3. Lack of understanding Most people falsely assume that Medicare or Medicaid will cover their choice of long term care in future. Most people will spend all savings on long term care in a year or less. Many people are unwilling to admit to themselves they have a need for care, don’t understand the types of care, and often don’t recognize a loved one is already providing them long term care.

4. Alarming Statistics 10,000 Baby Boomers turn 65 every day 70% of them will need some form of long term care (40% in a nursing home) 88% of life insurance policies will never pay a death benefit (lapse or surrendered) 38% of people the apply for Medicaid own a life insurance policy that will count against them

6. Seniors in the US own approximately $500 billion of life insurance However, very limited options to access value in a policy Stop paying premiums and lapse or abandon policy Surrender policy back to insurance company (usually less than 10% of face value) THERE IS A BETTER SOLUTION… Can’t afford premiums? Need to qualify for Medicaid?

15. “…Life Care Funding puts the money in an FDIC insured account used to send monthly payments directly to a long term care provider…You can switch from one provider to another as your needs change; but you can’t use the money for a vacation (or blow it at a casino).” 10/9/2013 “But a few state law makers who have introduced laws to publicize the [Benefit Plan] option have pointed out that it beats surrendering a policy to access government benefits while also giving families more control over how to spend the money.” 8/30/2013 “Texas enacted a law earlier this month that gives state Medicaid officials the authority to tell people applying for help they can sell long-held life-insurance policies to a third party to pay for custodial health care of their choice.” 6/27/2013
