Federal Long-Term Care Insurance Program
Important Information If You Are Eligible
Open enrollment for the Federal long-term care insurance program begins April 4, 2011 and ends June 24, 2011. If you are eligible for this coverage, the following information may be very helpful.
The Federal program is a group plan. It does not offer good health discounts offered by all private long-term care insurance policies. It also does not offer discounts when both spouses or partners apply for coverage.
If you are married, you can probably get equal long-term care insurance for less money. If you are in good health, you'll save even more.
Discounts and savings options vary from one insurer to another. That's really why we stress talking to a long-term care insurance professional who can match your situation to the insurer offering the best value.
