Consider the benefits*
of a Short-Term
Care Policy from Bankers Fidelity Life…
Covers all Levels of Care
Your Short-Term Care policy provides coverage for any level of care
including custodial care.
No Prior Hospitalization Required
You may enter the nursing facility directly from your home; there is no
pre-hospitalization requirement.
Flexible Benefits Tailored to Your Needs and Budget
Select from daily benefits of $20*
to $300. Choose from benefit periods of 180
days or 360 days, with a 20**
-day elimination period applied to either option.
Full Restoration of Benefits
Following confinement in a nursing home, and after you have been con-
finement-free for six consecutive months, 100% of any benefits paid are
restored*. Your lifetime maximum benefit is two times the benefit period
selected. Example: the 360 day benefit period provides a maximum life-
time benefit of 720 days.
Full Benefits Paid for Alzheimer’s Disease
Cognitive impairments, including Alzheimer’s Disease, senile dementia
and Parkinson’s Disease, are covered the same as any other illness.
Broad Definition of Coverage
Short-Term Care benefits are paid when you are unable to perform any
two of five Activities of Daily Living (ADLs):
and your nursing home stay is medically necessary as determined by
your physician.
Guaranteed Renewable for Life
Your policy can never be cancelled by the Company as long as your
premiums*
are paid on time, either in advance or during the grace period.
*Benefits are subject to limitations and exclusions. Premiums subject to change. Refer to Outline of Cover-
age for complete details.
If you understand the need for long-term care insurance but find the
premiums too expensive, a Short-Term Care Policy©
(form B 9305) from
Bankers Fidelity Life™
may be for you. By providing up to 360 days of
nursing home benefits per confinement, Short-Term Care will cover the
majority of all nursing home stays at a price that is much more afford-
able than long-term care insurance.
In addition, Short-Term Care coverage helps provide a degree of
protection from the depletion of your assets should you require a brief
stay in a nursing facility. And a Short-Term Care Policy allows you time
to make critical financial arrangements if long-term nursing home care
becomes necessary.
