For your clients, 62 and older, a Reverse Mortgage Standby Line of Credit can be used to create a senior care funding strategy so that your clients can receive the care they need while remaining in their home.
This document discusses how a reverse mortgage line of credit can help seniors pay for in-home care as they age, allowing them to remain in their home. A reverse mortgage provides a line of credit that is not reduced or revoked by the lender as long as loan terms are met. Funds from the line of credit can be used to pay for services like household help and nursing care. Unlike other loans, proceeds from a reverse mortgage are tax-free. The document argues that this is a solution to help cover the high costs of senior care for many who do not have long term care insurance or savings.

Planning for Long-Term Care - A consumer's guideLTCI Partners
Long-term care is expensive and most people are unprepared for these costs. The document discusses how 70% of Americans over 65 will need long-term care services, with costs projected to be over $1.9 million for five years of care 30 years from now.

Long-term care (LTC) refers to both medical and non-medical care for people who cannot independently perform daily activities or who have cognitive impairments. As lifespans increase, more people will need LTC, but it is very expensive - the average daily rate for a private nursing home room is over $200. Few have private LTC insurance to cover these costs. Private LTC insurance pays for only 7% of LTC costs currently. While it is growing as an alternative to relying on family or public programs, many are unaware of its benefits or mistakenly believe other options will cover LTC expenses.

The document discusses key questions about long-term care planning. It defines long-term care as ongoing services and support needed by those with chronic health conditions or disabilities, which can be provided in various settings like nursing homes or at home.

While Medicare provides limited coverage, Medicaid assists some after assets are depleted; therefore, purchasing long-term care insurance can help cover costs and allow choice over care.

Top 10 Reasons to Get Long Term Care InsuranceALTCP.org
ACSIA asked long term care specialists and agents regarding the reasons why people purchase long term care insurance. This infographic shows the top ten popular reasons why people prepare for the devastating cost of care by buying ltc insurance.
How many people in this room expect to need long-term care one day? It’s not surprising that few of us do, because it’s hard to face the fact that our health might decline. But statistics suggest that the risk is greater than we think. Approximately 70% of us--that’s 7 out of every 10 people here today--will need some type of long-term care services during our lifetimes at some point after we reach age 65. And though it's good news that people are living longer, a long life span increases the chance of developing serious health problems. In fact, according to the Alzheimer’s Association, one in nine people age 65 and older has Alzheimer’s disease, which often leads to the need for nursing home care. And while older people are more likely to need long-term care, younger people may need care too, as a result of a disabling accident or illness such as multiple sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease.
This isn’t meant to scare you, but rather to remind you that the need for long-term care can happen to anyone at any time. The need to be prepared is real, and something that you shouldn’t ignore.

Does Medicare Pay for Long-Term Care in New YorkMark Eghrari
Medicare does not pay for long-term custodial care like that received in nursing homes. Such care can cost over $160,000 per year in New York.

Planning is needed to qualify for Medicaid assistance with long-term care costs that Medicare does not cover.
Long-term care insurance can help employees plan for future long-term care needs. Statistics show that 70% of people over 65 will likely need long-term care services.

Long-term care insurance allows people to receive benefits for assistance with daily living before experiencing a major health event. Employers can offer group long-term care insurance plans to employees, which are more affordable than individual policies and provide peace of mind. The document discusses the need for long-term care planning and the advantages of employers providing group long-term care insurance options to their employees.

Long term care provides assistance for those with chronic conditions and involves services to support daily living for those unable to perform activities of daily living independently. It is most commonly needed for conditions that limit daily functioning or cause cognitive impairments, and can be provided at home, in assisted living/adult day care facilities, or in nursing homes. Long term care insurance helps cover the high costs of long term care and protects retirement savings and assets from being depleted by such expenses.
Connecticut Care Planning Council brings a variety of senior care providers together in one forum. The council eases a care givers search for services, products and information specific to seniors.
Children's access to mental health services in Vermont depends on insurance eligibility and funding. Funding comes from federal grants and Medicaid, with agencies relying heavily on Medicaid reimbursements. The timeline for receiving services involves assessments, meetings, and individualized plans. Children may qualify for subsidized insurance like Dr. Dinosaur or Katie Beckett Medicaid depending on their needs and family income. Lack of access to services can negatively impact children, families, communities, and policymakers. Social workers should advocate for policies that support early intervention and reimburse agencies to improve outcomes.
If the only certainties in life are death and taxes, a big uncertainty is how the later years of life will play out. We all hope for many years of both physical and mental health, but we’ve seen in our own families what happens when loved ones become ill or lose cognitive function. We’ve also seen what this can mean in terms of finances, care and stress on families.
Fortunately, we can all take steps to plan for the aging journey, whatever challenges we may encounter. Proactive planning can help ensure having the financial resources to make sure you have choices when and if you need assistance in the future.
The document discusses planning for long-term care needs. It notes that the likelihood of needing long-term care is significant, as 70% of people over 65 will require it, and the costs of care can be financially devastating.

Planning options discussed include long-term care insurance, which can help preserve assets and independence, and self-insuring using savings, though the latter is often not financially prudent. The document stresses the importance of evaluating long-term care needs and options early.

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.

Use a HECM Reverse Mortgage as a Funding Strategy for Care
1. This smart retirement
funding tool leverages
the power of an important
financial asset—home
equity—to help older
clients receive the care
they need, while they
continue to live in their
own home.
For your clients who are age 62 and older, a Reverse Mortgage Standby Line
of Credit can be used to create a Senior Care funding strategy.
• In-home care services can reduce the need for expensive
nursing homes, and improve quality of care.
• Services can gradually be ramped up as needed—from help
with household chores, to 24-hour nursing care.
• A Reverse Mortgage Standby Line of Credit can be set up in
advance—before care is needed—so funding is at-the-ready.
• Unlike a traditional home equity line of credit (HELOC), the
unused portion of the reverse mortgage line of credit grows
over time, allowing access to more funds as the borrower ages.
And the line cannot be reduced or revoked by the lender, as
long as the terms of the loan are met—ensuring the funds will
be there when needed.
• There are no monthly mortgage payments for as long as they
live in their home.* (The homeowners remain responsible for
keeping current with property taxes, required insurance and
home maintentance.)
• Proceeds are tax-free.**
