Long-term care insurance helps cover the cost of extended care services that are not covered by Medicare or traditional health insurance. This includes care provided in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, or in your own home. As people live longer, planning for potential long-term care needs has become an important part of protecting retirement savings and maintaining financial independence.
Many individuals are surprised to learn that Medicare does not cover most long-term care expenses. Medicare may cover short-term rehabilitation under specific conditions, but it does not cover ongoing custodial care, which is the most common type of long-term care.
Long-term care insurance helps provide financial protection by covering services such as:
Having coverage in place allows you to receive care in the setting you prefer while helping protect your assets and reducing the financial burden on family members.
The best time to explore long-term care coverage is typically before retirement or in the early retirement years. Eligibility and premiums are based on factors such as age and health, and applying earlier often provides more options and lower costs.
Many individuals in Texas choose to review long-term care coverage as part of their overall retirement planning strategy, especially as they approach Medicare eligibility.
