Long Term Care is high priority insurance
|
Susan Patricelli-Regan, host of CT Valley Views, again speaks with David Guttchen, director of Connecticut Long-Term Care Partnership, regarding the risks, costs and benefits of this vital insurance. Although there can be annual increases to premiums for coverage, the advantages are significant as it protects the individual’s assets and savings allowing the option of choosing assisted living or remaining in the home, contributing to the overall quality of life not only for the participant but the extended family.
