Long-term Care is care that you need if you can no longer perform everyday tasks ADL's (activities of daily living; including bathing, eating, cooking, walking, dressing, house chores, personal hygiene and walking) by yourself due to a chronic illness, injury, disability or the aging process. LTC also includes the supervision you might need due to a severe cognitive impairment (such as Alzheimer's disease).
Unlike traditional health insurance, Long-term Care Insurance policies reimburse policyholders a daily amount (up to a pre-selected limit) for services to assist them with activities of daily living or ADL's.
