Lincoln Financial offers some great resources when planning to purchase a Hybrid Long Term Care plan for your family.
All hybrid LTC plans are built off of either an annuity or a life insurance policy. MoneyGuard is built off of a guaranteed universal life insurance chassis. Your total benefit pool for long term care will be determined by factors including: your age, gender, selected benefit period, inflation protection and deposit amount.
Policies can be funded with a one-time single premium or through installment payments of 2-10 years. All things being equal, your life insurance policy (and LTC benefit pool) will be larger if the funds are deposited over shorter amount of time or through a single premium. You can choose between 2-7 year benefit periods, but the policy will last longer than your chosen term if you are not using the full allotted long term care benefit amount each month.
Both 3% and 5% compounding inflation options are available for purchase so the policy benefits can keep up with the rising costs of health care. When inflation protection is added, policies can create a sizable future benefit pool for the insured.
MoneyGuard offers an 80% and 100% return of premium feature should the insured want/need their premiums returned. One of these two options is chosen at purchase and will affect the overall benefit pool.
