What Is Long-Term Care Insurance?

Long-term care insurance is a type of coverage that helps pay for care services that aren’t typically covered by health insurance or Medicare. This includes in-home assistance with:

• Activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing, dressing, toileting, and mobility

• Cognitive support for conditions like Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia

• Personal care and companion services

• Supervision and safety monitoring in the home

If your loved one has an LTCI policy, they may qualify for coverage of many of the services provided by 2nd Family.
