The Cost-of-Care Study Results Are In

Every year, Mutual of Omaha conducts a cost-of-care study in all 50 states, and the results are in. The cost of services continues to rise and the average cost for a home health aide is over $70,000 a year.

They've updated their cost-of-care tools to reflect the changes in price and to help producers guide the conversation about how clients intend to pay for their long-term care.


Resources for Long-Term Care Sales:

  • Cost-of-Care Sales Ideas - Share the Cost-of-Care Overview and Home Health Care Sales Idea with producers to equip them for powerful conversations with clients, including links to the materials that can be used.
  • Cost-of-Care Calculator - See the current cost of LTC services by state and view what those costs might be 5, 10 or 20 years down the road.
  • Cost-of-Care Brochure - Use this brochure to help your clients understand the current cost of LTC services in their state.

Allstate Final Expense Highlights

Posted by www.psmbrokerage.com Admin on Tue, Apr 16, 2024 @ 03:35 PM

 

When your customer chooses Final Expense, they reduce the potential financial impact of their death on loved ones. This plan pays the total cash benefit to their beneficiaries to use any way they need, such as for funeral costs, credit card debt, or medical expenses. There’s more to Final Expense than a cash benefit on a policyholder’s passing, so check out the value it can offer your customers.

Not appointed with Allstate? Request details here.

Highlights

  • Easy to apply. Electronic applications with instant decision available. No medical tests or exams are required, and some benefits begin as early as day one.
  • Once they sign up, the premium is the same for the life of the policy.
  • Policyholders can sync up their premiums to be due the same day they receive their Social Security deposit.
  • While the policy is in force, policyholders  can take a loan against the cash value of  this policy. After the first year of premiums, they earn a percentage of that back as cash value. As cash value grows, they can take out a loan over the course of a few years.

Plan Features

grid

  • Optional covered dependent term life benefit rider is available.
  • Optional 100% additional death benefit rider available, potentially doubling the death benefit.

 allstate logoEligibility

  Available for ages 50-80.
  Availability varies by state.
Allstate Identity Protection (AIP) 
This benefit is included with all Final Expense policies at no extra cost.
Learn more about AIP.
