Even though it’s not something we like to think about, long-term care may likely be necessary at some point in your life. Maybe you have a heart attack, stroke or bad accident and need care suddenly, or maybe you develop a chronic illness as you get older. Having a plan in place for these events will help give you the opportunity to protect yourself from the full effect of high long-term care costs.
Even more important to note, private health insurance or Medicare may not pay for the long-term services you or your loved ones require. That’s why it’s important to think about long-term care along with your financial plans.
