Wrap up

Kudos to you for taking an important step toward understanding the pricing of LTCi. Most people don’t start this process until it becomes urgent, but planning ahead puts you in control.

The pricing calculator above reflects just one popular policy, but we offer the best policies on the market. Costs and benefits vary, so explore multiple options to pick the policy that makes you ecstatic.

If LTCi feels like part of your plan, consider buying sooner rather than later. Purchasing earlier reduces the chance of being declined for coverage, ensures your coverage starts now, and saves you money.
