Long-Term Care Insurance Overview

Using Your Long-Term Care Insurance for In Home Care Services

At Heart, Body & Mind Home Care, we celebrate our clients’ individualities and strive to help them continue to live the lives they want with the help of our holistic home care services. If you or your loved one purchased a long-term care insurance you can begin using the policy benefits to maintain independent living at home or to supplement your care at an assisted living facility.

In order to receive benefits from your long-term care insurance policy you will need to meet two criteria: The Benefit Trigger and the Elimination Period.

Benefit Triggers

Benefit triggers are the criteria that an insurance company will use to determine if you are eligible for benefits.  Most companies use a specific assessment form that will be filled out by either a company nurse or a social worker. Once you have been assessed, your care manager from the insurance company will approve a plan of care that outlines the benefits for which you are eligible.

Elimination Period

The elimination period is the amount of time that must pass after a benefit trigger occurs but before you start receiving payment for services. Think of the elimination period like the deductible you have on car insurance, except it is measured in time rather than by dollar amount. Most policy elimination periods are either 30, 60, or 90 days. During the period, you must cover the cost of any services that you receive.

Claim Management

Heart, Body & Mind Home Care works with all Long-Term Care insurance companies to help you get the benefits that you paid for over the years. As a complimentary service, our trained LTCi specialists will manage the process of long-term care claims for our clients and complete and file all paper work required by the insurance companies.
