Long-term care (LTC) insurance covers nursing-home care, home-health care, personal or adult day care. This can help insure your retirement savings don't need to be spend on these costs.
Unlike traditional life insurance, which just provides a death benefit, or long-term care insurance that only pays for qualifying expenses, a linked benefit policy has a death benefit, maintains a cash value and can provide income tax-free payments for qualified long-term care related expenses. This can be a great vehicle to take care of 2 needs with one product.
