Long-Term Care

Some people pay up to $74,000 a year for private nursing home care. Costs for assisted living can easily average $30,000 a year. Sadly, standard health insurance does not cover long-term care expenses. Medicare covers up to 100 days, but only if you meet specific guidelines. Long-term care premiums are most affordable during an employee’s wage-earning years. Help your employees protect their assets with affordable, level premiums.

Providing long-term care coverage helps employers retain key employees, and it may qualify as a tax-deductible business expense.
As an employer, you may select the participants in the plan. This coverage is not subject to discrimination testing under IRC 105(b).
For your employees, it’s a tax-free benefit as company-paid premiums are not included as employee income. Once they sign up, their premium rates remain level and predictable. What’s more, the coverage is portable.

This coverage offers Employer-Funded and Voluntary Options that can meet your business objectives as well as your employees’ needs.

Base Plan’s employee buy-up provision is a low-cost way to offer a valuable benefit to assist employees in starting their long-term care coverage.
Executive Carve Out programs can be created to allow businesses to provide enhanced benefits to a small group of officers, executives, board members and other key contributors.
Employer Paid Defined Contribution (percent of premium or flat benefit) allows an employer another flexible funding option to help employees obtain coverage while keeping program costs affordable.
Voluntary Employee Paid Plan offers special pricing for employees, even without an employer contribution. The same special pricing can be extended to family members and relatives.
