The Pension Protection Act (PPA) of 2006 provides new tax benefits for certain LTC Insurance and LTC Combo products. These new benefits apply to policies issued in 1997 (or later) with the benefits starting in 2010 (or later).

LTC Life Insurance

An LTC Life Insurance combination (LTC-Life Combo) product will offer the buyer some benefit from their premiums even if long term care is never needed. Either the policy holder will use some or all of the LTC benefit or a benefactor receives a life insurance payment. This clearly addresses the concern many individuals have regarding the potential that they may never need long term care.

Depending on the type of LTC-Life Combo policy purchased, benefit payments can be administered either as monthly cash payments or as reimbursement for expenses paid. Once on claim the cash plan pays the monthly maximum benefit the beginning of each month as long as the policy holder supplies evidence that expenses have incurred. The reimbursement plan will pay actual (qualifying) expenses up to the policy’s maximum (generally set as a monthly amount).

LTC Annuities

LTC Annuities allow the policy holder to self-insure their long term care insurance while protecting their assets from risk. The investment accumulates tax-deferred, less monthly charges for the long term care benefit. Because of tax law changes brought about by the Pension Protection Act of 2006, beginning January 1, 2010 your LTC premium deductions will no longer be taxable. (Under certain conditions, monthly deductions for LTC insurance may be tax deductible, but until the law changes take effect, monthly deductions for the LTC premium are taxable and the policy holder will receive a 1099 for this deduction.)

As an example: If you have an emergency fund set aside, moving a portion of it into Annuity can provide you up to three times that amount for LTC coverage. During the benefits phase, benefits paid from the annuity portion of your LTC Annuities are treated as distributions, thus any interest earnings are withdrawn first and taxable to the owner. Benefit payments made to providers may be tax deductible. With passage of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, as of January 1, 2010 all benefits paid from your annuity for qualified LTC expenses are not taxable.

LTC CASH™ may be an effective alternative to Disability Insurance

For those that do not qualify for traditional disability insurance, have been turned down, or find they cannot get enough disability insurance coverage, LTC CASH™ can be a viable alternative. With LTC CASH™, no proof of income or occupation is required; a policy typically costs two-thirds less than traditional disability insurance, and can cover someone until death.

Triggering an LTC CASH™ policy is based upon the individual’s inability to perform two of the six activities of daily living (ADLs) or because of a severe cognitive impairment. Traditional disability insurance benefits are triggered based upon one’s inability to perform an occupation.
