    The Best Kept Secret in Long-Term Care Insurance

    Long-Term Care Insurance expert Scott A. Olson explains that many elder law attorneys spend their time handling crisis situations for families who failed to plan ahead for long-term care. He emphasizes that every long-term care plan should include three essentials: a care circle, care documents, and a strategy for care funding. While long-term care insurance can help fund a plan, Olson highlights a little-known option called a long-term care partnership policy. These policies are the best-kept secret in long-term care planning because they allow middle-class families to protect assets from Medicaid spend-down, even if their policy benefits run out.
