“What to Say Now About LTCI Rate Increases,” by Margie Barrie, ThinkAdvisor

“Q. The topic of rate increases must be part of the conversation when I work with clients. When they request more details, how should I explain the reasons for past rate increases and the probability of future increases?

A. Our clients need to be told to expect rate increase and to understand the reasons why. As long as rate increases occur, we will probably see negative articles in the press. So, it will be helpful if our clients understand the challenges that actuaries and carriers encounter when setting rates.”
