Long-Term Care Protection Group | Individual
What is Long-Term Care (LTC)? Long-Term Care includes a wide range of
medical and support services for people with a degenerative condition
(e.g., Parkinson’s, stroke, etc.), a prolonged illness (cancer) or
cognitive disorder (Alzheimer’s). Long-Term Care coverage can help
protect your assets, and the estate you’ve accumulated over your life,
whatever you’d like your family to inherit.
LTC Insurance (LTCi) can cover many of the costs of care whether
at home or in a facility. You must be healthy now to qualify for
coverage, and the younger you are the more reasonable the premium.

Whether your group is large or small – a sizeable company or a
mom-and-pop shop – Bett will help you explore options for employee
coverage. Insurance Solutions provides personalized and patient
assistance, offering clear and detailed explanations about the variety
of available plans, so that you can choose what’s right for your
business. All major carriers are represented, including new offerings below for self-employed individuals.
AgriPlan and BizPlan are medical pre-tax plans, specifically for
self-employed individuals. AgriPlan/BizPlan is not insurance; rather, it
is the benefit vehicle that allows self-employed individuals to pay for
their medical expenses with pre-taxed dollars and turn 100% of their
medical expenses into a full tax deduction for their business.
This plan is ideal for entrepreneurs who file as a corporation; they are
able to offer this pre-tax medical benefit to themselves. If you are a
sole-proprietor or an LLC and your spouse assists with the business, you
would provide this benefit to your employed spouse (this is necessary
because AgriPlan/BizPlan is considered an "employee benefit"). Besides
allowing 100% of your family's medical premiums and expenses to be paid
for with pre-tax dollars, the benefit is also a full tax deduction for
your business.
Disability
Disability insurance pays you an income when you are unable to work
because of an accident or illness. Your ability to work and earn money
may be your most valuable asset. Contact Bett to help you evaluate your
need for disability insurance and learn about the types of coverage.
Life
Get help finding the best coverage for you. Comparing types of plans –
term, whole life, etc. – can be mind-boggling, and in these uncertain
times, it’s essential to know the track record and status of the
company you are dealing with. Cheap may not be most reliable! Contact
Bett to help lead you through the maze.
Critical Illness
Critical illness insurance is medical insurance that pays a lump-sum
benefit upon diagnosis of a critical illness or condition. A critical
illness insurance payout helps you avoid the financial strain a major
illness can create so you can focus on your recovery. It gives you the
freedom to:
• Get the treatment you want
• Spend time with your family and friends
• Keep your home and other assets
