Life Care Funding helps families answer these important questions about long term care:
- “How do we find the best type of care for me or a loved one?”
- “How do we pay for it?”
We invite you to find the answers to these questions on our website, or by speaking with a Benefits Specialist today.
The Long Term Care and Senior Living Industry’s Trusted Financial Partner
Life Care Funding was the first to pioneer the concept of converting a life insurance policy into a Long Term Care Benefit Plan. Since our inception, we have enjoyed tremendous support from the long term care industry, the press and political leaders across the country. We have built a network of agents, attorneys, and over 5,000 Homecare, Assisted Living and Nursing Home companies that offer the Life Care Funding program across the United States; we have been featured in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, USA Today, Woman’s World Magazine, Kiplinger’s, and numerous industry trade publications; on CBS, FOX, PBS and Bloomberg radio programs among others; speak at industry events across the country; and we have been the model for legislation specifically endorsing the Long Term Care Benefit Plan concept which has been introduced in the state legislatures of CA, FL, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, NJ, NJ, PA, WA and passed into law in TX and KY.
