Long Term Care provides a range of services that includes both medical and non-medical care to individuals who have a disability or chronic illness. Long Term Care gives people the ability to get the full range of care to fit both their medical and personal needs. There are over 9 million people this year that will require long term care. Their needs can range from medical procedures to assistance with daily living, such as dressing, bathing, and eating.
While some people may never need long term care, others may end up needing it at a much younger age then most, you just never know. Therefore, be aware of what your plan covers, and whether you are eligible for long term care under your current coverage. For example, if you are currently insured by Medicare, this plan does not pay for assisted living expenses that may be covered by long term plans. Additionally, if you are insured by Medicaid, this program will only assist in Long Term Care situations once your personal assets have been nearly depleted.
No matter your situation, young or old, long term care should be something to consider. Long term Care can be a costly expense, as an average health aide only three days a week can cost more than $20,000 annually. Being prepared prior to a crisis may save you money, your independence, and most importantly your health.
