Can you convert a term life insurance policy into payments for long term care and is home health care covered?

The is no such thing as converting a life policy to a long-term care policy. One possibility, however, might be to sell the term policy for cash and then use the cash for long-term care expenses or, if the applicant is young enough and healthy enough, premiums for a long-term care policy.

A Long Term Care Benefit Plan is the conversion of an in-force life insurance policy into a pre-funded, irrevocable Custodial Benefit Account that is professionally administered with payments made monthly on behalf of the individual receiving care. This option extends the time a person would remain private pay and delays their entry onto Medicaid. The policy transaction is specifically designed to conform to the secondary market regulations that govern life settlement/viaticals, and the Benefit is administered specifically to be a Medicaid qualified spend-down of the asset proceeds. By obtaining the fair market value for the life policy, and then at the direction of the policy owner putting the funds into an irrevocable bank account which can only be administered third-party to pay for Medicaid/Medicare qualified long term care services; the Long Term Care Benefit Plan is a regulated and Medicaid qualified financial vehicle to help cover the costs of long term care.

I read this article on this site. https://www.agingcare.com/articles/use-a-life-insurance-policy-to-pay-for-long-term-care-157309.htm that says you can???

I called them and asked them if they did term insurance and they said yes, even group insurance. We need the funds now so Long term care insurance has not been an option for years. This company will make payments for home care or so they say. Now I am nervous. They have a video and it looks legit???

You better listen to the above 2 fellows.

Value....also who is keeping up the
Premiums....also when does the term
