Using Long Term Care Insurance to Fund Home Care
Long-term care insurance (LTCI) is a form of insurance that is generally intended to cover services needed to care for a person in later life. It is becoming an increasingly popular way to pay for home care and can protect your assets by paying for covered expenses up to the amounts set forth in your policy.

Long Term Care Insurance for Home Care in San Mateo, CA
A LTCI policy is a signed contract between the insurance provider and the policyholder. Each policy’s provisions and policies are unique to the person and because of that, it is likely that no two policies are the same and even policies within the same insurance provider may be different.
To get the most out of the home care benefits offered, it is best to review each Long Term Care Insurance policy individually to understand the policy’s covered benefits. Home Instead of San Mateo is happy to help you with this process!
