what you're paying for is not having to go through Medicaid going through the government.
And so that's the high cost of it.
It's like, hey, I know the care is not going to be that much, but I'm paying for peace of mind that I don't have to go through Medicaid.
So that $2,000 a month bill that you've been paying since you were 70 is worth it to some people because they don't have to go through Medicaid.
And
What long-term care insurance does is say, hey, we'll cover the cost of AIDS, even if it's 24-7 or nursing home payment and things like that.
They may have their own fine line, fine print or whatever, but most of them have that daily care accessible and available.
And then lastly, there's Medicaid.
And so when people think Medicaid, they have this stigma of welfare and they're like, oh, that's not for us.
We're over-resourced.
We have a home.
And it's immediately removed from everyone's minds.
And I am here to say that it does not hurt to just check, just ask when you're doing that roadmap hour with your attorney, hey, why not just ask when you're retiring?
And you're like, any chance I could...
qualify for Medicaid if I needed it in the future?
Ask the question, because I think you would be surprised how readily attorneys will say, yes, you are eligible.
Medicaid for seniors is different.
The government knew that long-term care would cost a lot for seniors.
They had a vision back then that it would be too much for many seniors.
So they expanded the requirements for seniors.
