What is the best LTC insurance policy for me?
What is best for one person may not be good for another. The benefits and amount of coverage an individual or couple needs depends on their unique circumstances. A single or widowed woman may need very different benefits than a married man, particularly if their economic circumstances are different. Women are more likely to live longer than men and more likely to live alone at the end of their lives. Without family members willing to provide some home care and support services, women are more likely to receive LTC in a nursing home or assisted living facility.
