Can an annuity help you pay for long term(finished)RandyBett
Many seniors will need long-term care services but cannot rely on Medicare or Medicaid to cover the high costs, which average $50,000-$95,000 annually for nursing home care. An annuity can help cover these costs by allowing seniors to set aside a portion of their retirement savings, such as $200,000-$380,000 from $950,000 total savings, that will pay out if long-term care is needed. If long-term care is not required, the annuity provides extra income, while the remaining savings continue growing. Seniors should consult a financial professional when considering an annuity to plan for potential long-term care costs.

Continuing Disability Review –
Important Factors
This article discusses some factors that are taken into
consideration when conducting a continuing disability
review.
If you are receiving SSI (Supplemental Security Income) or
SSDI/SSD (Social Security
Disability Insurance), you will
have to undergo a periodic
medical record review by the
Social Security Administration
(SSA). This is to ensure that
you continue to be disabled.
This review is called CDR
(Continuing Disability Review). The individual’s
resources, income and living arrangements also come under
the purview of the disability review. It is a redetermination,
according to the SSA.
Resources include things a person owns such as bank
accounts/U. S. savings bonds/cash/life
insurance/land/personal property/vehicles and deemed
resources. What are deemed resources? This is when SSA
deems a portion of the resources of your parent, spouse,
parent’s spouse, sponsor of an alien or sponsor’s spouse as
belonging to you. The value of your resources should stay
within the allowable limit at the beginning of the month for
you to be eligible for SSI for that month. You may be
eligible to receive SSI from the month after you sell the
excess resources. You may be eligible to receive benefits
during the period you are trying to sell them. When you sell

the resource, make sure that you pay back the SSI benefits
paid to you (conditional benefits) for the period in which
you were trying to sell the resource. The “conditional
benefits agreement” form can be obtained from your local
Social Security office. In case the resource is sold or given
away for less than its real value, you may be ineligible for
SSI benefits up to 36 months. The value of the resource you
sold/gave away determines how long you will remain
ineligible for SSI benefits.
Income is significant with regard to the SSI program
because the more countable income an individual has the
less will be the SSI benefit. You are not eligible for the
benefits if your countable income is above the allowable
limit. On the other hand, some of your income may not
even count as income as per the SSI program. More
information on this is available at the website
http://www.socialsecurity.gov/ssi/text-income-ussi.htm.
Another factor that is taken into consideration is your living
arrangement. The SSI benefits paid vary in accordance with
the place where you live.
• In your own establishment
• In someone else’s household
• In a board and care facility/group care
• In a hospital/nursing home or similar institution
Your SSI benefits may be reduced under special conditions,
more information of which is provided at
http://www.socialsecurity.gov/ssi/text-living-ussi.htm.
Benefit amount for homeless people are calculated in the
same way as that for a person who is living in his own

establishment. People living in a public shelter for the
homeless can also receive up to the maximum SSI benefit
payable in their state for a maximum of 6 months out of
any 9 month period. Even if you don’t have an address, the
SSA will make due arrangements to make payments to you.
The length of time between continuing disability reviews
vary from one case to another. It partly depends on the
classification of the impairment for which the benefits were
granted.
• Medical Improvement Possible (MIP): review once
every three years.
• Medical Improvement Not Expected (MINE): review
once every five to seven years.
• Medical Improvement Expected (MIE): review six to
eighteen months following the initial finding of
disability
• Vocational Re-examination cases: review of
recipientsenrolled in vocational program, which may
improve the ability to work at the end of the program
• One of these factors is present: technological
advancements that help an individual to return to work
or another person reports to the Social Security
Administration that the person has recovered/returned
to work.
