New Hampshire Long Term Care Insurance
|
|
There are six primary factors influencing the
premium for long term care insurance policies: |
|
Type of Policy: Facility, Home Health Care, or
Comprehensive |
|
Age: The most important element in determining the
premium. Naturally the earlier you start paying for long term care insurance the better. |
|
Daily Benefit: The maximum amount a policy will
pay for one day of care. This can vary from $50 per day to over $400 per day. You will decide whether to purchase sufficient insurance to cover all of these costs or only most of them. |
|
Benefit Limit: The number of years that a plan will pay a benefit from
the time you get sick. Benefit limits generally vary from one year to lifetime coverage. The longer the benefit limit, the greater the protection but the higher the cost.
Inflation Protection: Sometimes called an "inflation rider", this
provides you with a way for your daily benefits to increase over time. Otherwise, the policy may not be sufficient to protect you many years from now. Long term care insurance policies normally contain riders offering automatic daily benefit increases of 5 percent each year, either at "simple" or "compounded" rates.
Elimination Period: Amount of time that you agree to pay out of your
own pocket before the plan (policy) begins to pay. This period normally varies from 0 to 100 days. The 100-day elimination period will produce the smallest premium cost to you. |

Long Term Care Insurance (Nursing Care)
|
|
There are three levels of nursing care that are covered by a long
term care insurance policy: |
|
Custodial care: Care necessary due to a permanent or chronic
illness or injury, which is less intensive, but which may continue indefinitely. This nursing care helps a person perform activities of daily living or supervises a person if cognitive impairment exists. Many custodial care situations start with a mild degree of illness which is followed by slow deterioration. Alzheimer's disease is one example where custodial care is usually needed. Other types of insurance policies do not offer custodial care benefits. The value of long term care insurance for you or a family member and protecting a lifetime of created assets is never more evident than in custodial care nursing services. |
|
Skilled care: Short term nursing care needed after an illness or
serious injury. Consists of rehabilitative and intensive 24 hours per day care. |
|
Intermediate care: Rehabilitative care by a nurse for up to six
months and when less than 24-hours per day supervision is needed. |
|
Skilled care: Short term nursing care needed after an illness or
serious injury. Consists of rehabilitative and intensive 24 hours per day care. |
