About This Webinar:

Many attorneys understand the benefit of supporting their client’s asset protection trust with a long-term care insurance policy in case care is needed before the five-year lookback period is up. Logistically, however, most clients in this stage of proactive planning won’t qualify for a policy, or it will be too expensive. That’s where an alternative solution comes in—short-term care insurance.

Join Krause Financial’s Holly Westervelt and Alex Thompson as they explore this exciting extended care planning product. Short-term care insurance has a higher issue age, more lenient underwriting requirements, and can be more cost effective for a client whose main goal is to plan for future Medicaid benefits.

Our team will cover:

  • The key product features of short-term care insurance and how it differs from long-term care insurance
  • State availability of short-term care insurance products
  • Detailed case studies illustrating how the different policy options work in action
