Will you have the money you need if you get sick or injured and need long-term care?
Anyone with even a small amount of experience with an elderly person who has Alzheimers, Parkinsons, a stroke or other debilitating illness can appreciate the financial devastation that results when round-the-clock care is inevitably required.
This is the reason long-term care insurance policies were developed – we want to protect ourselves from becoming a burden to our family and friends. At the Nowell Agency, your need for independence is what drives our commitment to give you the best coverage.

Affordable Long Term Care Insurance
Most Americans expect a certain, acceptable quality of life throughout their lifetime. They also expect to have the freedom to make their own choices about how they are cared for and by whom. That independence, however, comes at a price and while most Americans suspect they may someday need long-term care, they also underestimate how much that care will cost. Most also assume that Medicare or their health insurance will pay for extended care.
Unfortunately, this is not true – both health insurance and Medicare typically pay only for short-term care (in specific circumstances).
What Does Long Term Insurance Cover?
The value of having long-term care insurance is that it:
- Supports independent living at home or at an assisted living facility
- Protects loved ones from the burden of daily care giving>
- Gives the insured the freedom of options
Long-term care insurance plans pay for the out-of-pocket costs of receiving care – even when your care giving needs increase. As your illness progresses, you don’t have to worry about becoming a burden if you are sick or injured – even if that occurs at an early age.
