Long Term Care

Long term care is the assistance individuals need when they are unable to care for themselves and need help with activities of Daily Living (ADLs)- bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, continence and eating- or have severe cognitive impairment.   The need for long term care can result from an accident, chronic illness or other disability or from advancing age.

Long term care insurance is a disability based product that helps to offset the high cost of nursing home care or professional home care.   The average cost of a year in a nursing home is $40,000., it is even higher in Massachusetts.

Annuities

An annuity is an investment vehicle that affords periodic income payments for a fixed period of time or during the lifetime of a person who is called the annuitant.   The annuitant pays either a lump sum premium or a set amount on a regular basis to the insurance company.  Payments begin or annuitize when the annuitant decides.  There are several types of annuities:

  • Immediate Annuity- payments begin one, three, six, or twelve months after purchase.
  • Deferred Annuity- payments begin more than one year after the payment of the first (or single) premium to the insurance company, usually at a selected retirement age.
  • Fixed Annuity- this type of annuity has guaranteed rates of return by the insurance company.  Although the rates may not be as attractive, you are not exposed to the ups and downs of the stock market.
  • Variable Annuity- this is a deferred annuity whose performance is determined by the stock market or other equity based investments.   This allows for more growth of your premium dollars but also has more risk.

Group Life

This type of insurance usually covers employees in a company.  The amount is traditionally set by the employer and can be increased by multiples of the employees' salary.  It is usually coupled with Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance.
