“Long-Term Care Insurance Policyholders Ask for Relief,” by Allison Bell, ThinkAdvisor

“The Maryland Insurance Administration attracted just two policyholders today to a public hearing on three long-term care insurance (LTCI) issuers’ rate increase requests. The issuers making the requests were John Hancock Life Insurance Company, Prudential Insurance Company of America and UNUM Life Insurance Company of America. The Maryland Insurance Administration streamed the hearing live on the web, through its Facebook page.”

LTC Comment (from Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform):

Maybe this isn’t quite the burning worry most hyperventilating media stories make it out to be.
