Long Term Care Insurance

Explanations helpful

Baygroup was helpful to my wife and me in deciding on long term care insurance policy because Melissa explained options and benefits.

The Gift of Choice – and Long Term Care

As we open up holiday cards and presents, as fun and festive as they are, it is also good to reflect on how the value of these items pale in comparison to the more meaningful gifts that life offers. Gifts such as spending time with friends and loved ones.

Investigating hybrid whole life/long term care policies

It was very useful to have Melissa’s input on options I am considering for insurance.  Her familiarity with what various insurers are offering is great. Especially helpful when dealing with considerations that may be out of the ordinary – like what kind of restrictions would apply for use of policy benefits outside of the US.  Melissa has done her homework and has a lot of that information right at her fingertips.

Halloween and the Genworth Financial Cost of Care Survey

 

For 16 years, Genworth Financial has been producing what is considered the gold standard report on the cost of long term care. Other surveys have come and gone, but this one has remained the same. 

The Dementia Disaster

Ken Burns’ 2016 documentary on cancer titled, Cancer: The Emperor of All Maladies, speaks to the fear that a cancer diagnosis strikes in the hearts of all. And this begs the question, if cancer is the emperor, what can then be said about other debilitating conditions such as dementia?

Options provided and carefully explained

Melissa Barnickel of Baygroup provided several options and carefully explained the differences.

The Definitive Annual Survey on Long Term Care Insurance

It is my pleasure to report highlights from the 2019 Milliman Long Term Care Insurance Survey, which was published in the July 2019 issue of Broker World magazine. This gold standard report for agents has been published for 21 consecutive years and focuses on stand-alone long term care insurance.

Not Just Asset Protection: How Private Long Term Care Can Protect Against Abuse

It’s horrible in the abstract. Yet it’s even worse when it’s reported at a facility you know. The topic: elder abuse at the hands of professional caregivers.

Wage Inflation and Long Term Care Planning

Today’s long term care insurance buyers have enjoyed a sustained multi-year period of low inflation. I say "enjoyed" because today’s buyers are normally pre-retirement, and therefore value low mortgage and interest rates more than their retired counterparts.
