I was reading an article published by San Diego Source on February 28, 2008 on Long Term Care Insurance and the California Long Term Care Partnership program. The article stated that last year, 6 million letters bearing Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s name and official state seal went out to Californians encouraging them to take a look at buying their own long term care insurance plan. Schwarzenegger knows that the State’s Medicaid budget is over flowing and caring for people as they age costs millions to California tax payers.
When one does not plan for long term care, they may have to depend on the government for financial help, but they lose options and the quality of care drops off sharply. The California State Long Term Care Insurance program encourages people to buy their own plan and if it ever runs out, then, the State will step in so that you will not have to use your own assets. Many States are opening the doors to the Partnership Long Term Care insurance programs, and if you have a nest-egg to protect it might be worth a look.
Having your own California Long Term Care Partnership plan will give you control and most importantly quality of care that simply will not be available through the Medicaid welfare program.
