Why are plans with a limited premium payment option not allowed to opt for the LTC conversion option benefit?
In many cases the LTCI conversion option would not be attractive to paid-up CII policyholders as they would want to pre-fund their LTCI coverage and the LTCI conversion option does not provide pre-funding. If clients are interested in pre-paying their long term care plans we do offer a limited pay option on our stand-alone LTCI policy.
