I want to buy an LTC policy for my parents

Author: Diane Stoddart, Certified Long Term Care Consultant, CLTC April 24, 2025 Duration: 9:31
We often hear from sons and daughters who want to buy LTC coveeage for a parent. This could be to preserve a family home, to avoid Medicaid, or because they watched their parents care for their own parents for several years. They don't want to go through that again. This works if the parent is still healthy enough to be approved by an insurance company. Different kinds of planning strategies are offered by different companies up to various age limits, and health questions differ as well. We can be pretty certain that Medicaid will be less accomodating in the future.
