Advances in medical technology
and changes in lifestyle have resulted in our living healthier and longer
lives than any previous generation. This lengthening of our life
span also means we are more likely to require some form of assistance with
walking, bathing, dressing or eating, commonly referred to as activities
of daily living, at some point in our lives. This assistance, which
may last a few weeks, months, or several years, has become know as Long
Term Care.

Unfortunately,
many Americans are unaware of the financial risks associated with needing
Long Term Care Services, yet the Health Insurance Association of America
currently shows nearly 1 our of 2
people turning age 65 will spend time in a Nursing Facility1.
