Coverage Information

Daily Benefit Amount
How many years of benefit do you need?
We recommend lifetime coverage for disaster protection. Less than lifetime protection is inadequate and should only be used if you feel the cost of lifetime coverage is prohibitive.
How many days elimination before you want benefits to start?
We recommend 90 days elimination for disaster protection. If your care qualifies for medicare benefits, the policy can not pay any benefits until the medicare coverage period of 100 days is exhausted.
Do you want your premium waived if you are in Home Care?
This is a nice option to have if you choose a lifetime payment schedule. We don't recommend it with the 10-Pay option.
What type of inflation protection do you want?
We recommend the compound inflation protection rider if your life expectancy is over 20 years. The Simple inflation rider may be adequate if your life expectancy is less than 25 years and the cost is a critical factor. A $100/day benefit will grow in 20 years to $265 Compound vs $200 simple; in 30 years to $432 compound vs $250 simple; and, in 40 yrs to $704 compound vs $300 simple.
