LONG TERM CARE
When planning their retirement, many people have a blindspot in strategy: the prospect of requiring long-term care. While you might have made provisions in your retirement planning for living a good life, you may have underestimated the costs of long-term care or made the common mistake of believing that your health insurance will cover it.
The costs of long-term care could easily eat up your retirement savings very quickly. According to a 2017 report, a 65-year-old could expect to pay out $138,000 in long-term care costs over their lifetime. But when you have the right long-term care plan in place, you can rest assured that these costs will be covered.
What is Long-Term Care?
According to U.S. government statistics, 70% of people aged 65 today will access some form of long-term care during their lifetime. If you suffer an illness or injury that means you are unable to manage your personal care or you need help with daily activities, you will usually need to access long-term care. And of course, this assistance needs to be paid for.
At Pence Wealth Management, we can help you to plan for the future and the unexpected. Many health insurance policies do not cover long-term care and so it makes a lot of sense to include a provision in your financial and retirement planning strategy.
