What Is Long-Term Care Insurance and Do You Really Need It?
You’ve probably heard of it, but many still ask: What is long-term care insurance—and is it something worth having?
In simple terms, long-term care insurance helps cover the cost of services that assist with daily living activities, such as bathing, dressing, eating, and mobility—whether at home, in an assisted living facility, or a nursing home. These are the types of care that aren’t typically covered by health insurance or Medicare, which often only pay for short-term or medically necessary care.
Why It Matters:
The cost of long-term care is rising, with private nursing home rooms averaging over $100,000 per year.
Most people will need some form of long-term care in their lifetime, especially as they age or face chronic conditions.
Without insurance, long-term care expenses can quickly drain retirement savings or become a financial burden on families.
