Long Term Care Insurance for Maryland Home Care Services

If you’re looking to use long term care insurance for Maryland home care services, you’ve come to the right place! At 2nd Family, we recognize the growing need for long-term care insurance to cover non-medical in-home senior care. This insurance is a safety net for seniors who need help as they age, covering in-home care services, nursing home, assisted living, and adult daycare costs. It’s essential for those planning to age in their own homes or needing assistance with daily living activities​​.

Over half of those aged 65 and above may develop disabilities, necessitating assistance. While Medicare and Medicaid offer limited help, long-term care insurance covers the costs not included by regular health insurance, preventing out-of-pocket expenses that can accumulate quickly​​.

Long Term Care Insurance FAQ

How much coverage will my policy provide?

Each policy is different and crafted based on many factors, including age, health, and monthly expense. Your insurance provider will have more details about the exact provisions of your policy.

What services will my policy cover?

The vast majority of long term care insurance policies cover all non-medical services provided in the home. Having said that, most policies also have a minimum requirement that you need assistance with at least 2 ADLs (activities of daily living) during each visit. Each policy is different, and we can assist you in determining exactly what your policy covers.

I have a long term care insurance policy. What happens if I need more care?

In the event that your policy will not provide sufficient coverage, you can pay the difference out of pocket. You are certainly not limited to only receive the amount of care that the insurance agency approves, but you will be responsible for covering the difference in cost.
