Issue Brief Discusses Long-Term Care Partnership Programs
"Long-Term Care Partnerships: An Update," Alliance for Health Reform: The issue brief presents information from a November 2006 briefing to examine the Long-Term Care Partnership Program, which allows people to retain assets equal to the amount of their long-term care insurance policy and apply for Medicaid after their private benefits are used. The brief also discusses other initiatives and future challenges to encourage U.S. residents to purchase private long-term care insurance (Alliance for Health Reform, "Long-Term Care Partnerships: An Update," March 2007).

Great blog.
I think one of the things that keeps a lot of people from buying long term care insurance is 'sticker shock'. They often don't shop around for a policy, from several of the top insurers.
The price of a long term care insurance policy can vary a lot from one insurance company to the next. Each long term care insurance policy has a unique way of calculating your premium based upon your health history, marital status, your choice of benefits, and even your state of residence. It pays to shop.
I found this website very helpful.
