Dear Stephanie,   

Including long term care planning in a retirement strategy, it is more important than ever to ensure clients have the ability to help protect their family and finances from a long term care event. One of the solutions is to transfer some or all of the risk to a long term care insurance policy. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 provides additional opportunities for funding long term care insurance premiums.

Have a great week!

Your Genworth Financial Sales Team


Using a SPDA to Fund LTC Insurance

Cindy and Tom own a deferred annuity. They wanted to protect their children should either parent need long term care and expressed the need to include a plan in their retirement strategy. Their agent Dave recommends long term care insurance and suggests a tax-efficient way to fund the premiums: use part of the couple’s SPDA. Read more about this approach here.
