“Why LTC Needs to Be Included in a Retirement Plan: Part 1”

“Why LTC Needs to Be Included in a Retirement Plan: Part 1,” by Sandra Timmerman, ThinkAdvisor

“Although long-term care is a major worry of people nearing or in retirement, it appears that financial professionals rarely bring up the subject.  According to a recent study, women whose husbands had died wanted to know more about long-term care planning, but very few advisors talked to them about it.2 There are hardly any retirees who would neglect to purchase Medicare Supplemental Insurance when they reach age 65. But, for some reason, buying or planning for long-term care protection isn’t viewed in the same way.”
