What is Long Term Care (LTC) and Long Term Care Insurance (LTCi)?

Long term care (LTC) combines a broad range of ongoing care for people with:

• Prolonged physical illnesses

• Limitations in Activities of Daily Living (ADLs): transferring, continence, toileting, bathing, dressing, and eating.

• Cognitive disorders (such as Alzheimer’s disease)

There are three generally recognized types of long term care:

• Skilled Care is daily nursing and rehabilitative care under the supervision of skilled medical personnel such as registered nurses or professional therapists.

• Intermediate Care is the same as skilled care, except it requires only intermittent or occasional nursing and rehabilitative care.

• Custodial Care helps you perform activities of daily living, preferably at home. 95% of all nursing care is custodial.

A comprehensive long term care insurance (LTCi) program covers a broad range of services including:

• Home health care

• Personal care

• Homemaker services

• Respite care

• Care in an assisted living or local residential care facility

• Nursing home care

• Custodial care

• Community-based care in an adult day care program

• Hospice supplemental care
