More Americans Are Seeking Long Term Care Insurance through Their Employers, Reports Michael Schadek of ACSIA Partners

Columbus, OH September 29, 2014 – Why isn’t long term care insurance, like health insurance, available at the workplace? Well, increasingly it is -- and more Americans should take advantage of that fact, says Michael Schadek, OH-based agent of ACSIA Partners, a leader in long term care planning.

“We’re providing LTC education and policies to more and more Americans at their place of work,” says Schadek. The workplaces range from local mom-and-pop companies to large national corporations and non-profits.

It used to be that long term care protection was mostly a family matter, but that’s changing, according to Schadek.

“People need help here, just as they do in securing health insurance,” Schadek says, pointing out that employer-mediated “mult-life” plans offer many advantages for employed people:

• Lower rates based on group participation.
• Simplified health screening.
• Faster review and approval.
• The option to include non-working family members.

Employers also enjoy bottom-line benefits. When employees and their families have LTC protection, organizations tend to –

• Avoid unnecessary absenteeism that happens when their people become caregivers for family members who lack funds to pay for care.
• See better performance by covered employees who worry less about the care needs of family members or themselves.
• Attract and keep top people thanks to the LTC benefit, a new gold standard of benefit packages.

The trend toward workplace LTC insurance also helps keep federal and state governments solvent. “Medicaid is the default supplier of long term care funding, and that could be a budget buster as baby boomers age,” says Schadek. “Widespread private protection, thanks to employers, can help keep Medicaid in line.”

Schadek advises talking to one’s employer about LTC insurance regardless of whether it’s currently offered as a benefit. “Multi-life programs can be set up quickly for groups as small as five or large as thousands,” Schadek says.

Michael Schadek is a leading long term care solutions agent in OH, serving consumers as well as organizations. “We’re glad to help them find the best, most affordable solution for their situation,” Schadek says. "In addition to long term care insurance, today's options range from critical illness insurance and annuities to life insurance with LTC riders."
