If you are a baby boomer, you may be surprised to discover that Long Term Care expenses are not adequately covered by traditional medical insurance plans. Further, there are also restrictions on Long Term Care coverage under Medicare and Medicaid. If you require care in your home or in an assisted living facility, most likely you will need more or different coverage than what is provided by traditional medical insurance, Medicare or Medicaid. Long Term Care or LTC insurance can bridge this gap in coverage. Long Term Care Insurance insurance provides payment for assistance if you need help with basic Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). ADLs include bathing, dressing or moving around your home. Long Term Care insurance would also usually cover degenerative conditions such as a stroke or cognitive impairment like Alzheimer's Disease. Long Term Care Insurance policies have evolved to cover assistance whether it is within your home, within a nursing home or within an assisted living facility.

Over 75% of Americans do not think they need long term care insurance. A recent study conducted by the U.S. Department of Health noted that by the time people reach the age of 65, more than 40% risk needing to live in a nursing home. If you nearing 50 years old, this means within the next 10-15 years there is nearly a 50% likelihood that you will need some level of Long Term Care. Poor exercise, overeating and smoking can increase the percentage. LTC costs can quickly consume the retirement savings of those who do not plan properly. Long Term Care is not just for the elderly. While most people who need long-term care are age 65 or older, a person can need long-term care services at any age. Almost forty (40) percent of people currently receiving long-term care are between the ages of 18 and 64 years old.
