Long-term care insurance is an insurance policy that helps pay for long-term care, including home care, when the owner of the policy is no longer able to provide self-care. If someone needs daily assistance for activities of daily living (ADLs), including bathing or restroom use, the long-term care insurance policy will cover the care they need. This helps relieve the burden of the cost of in-home care for the owner of the policy and their family if the time comes when they need in-home care to get through the day. Long-term care insurance may cover care in the case of debilitating injuries or illness, chronic illness or disability, cognitive impairment, or deteriorating physical or mental health.
