There’s time to get it later

Or is there though? Let’s be honest. You may be as healthy as a horse now, but you never know what can happen a few years later. And because health can be unpredictable, it is better to get insurance when you are still younger and healthier. This will also increase your chances of qualifying for long-term care insurance coverage because the younger you are, the more likely you are to be at your healthiest.

The average age at which people end up purchasing this insurance is 57, but we suggest you try to get it somewhere, starting at 52 and at the latest at 64, since once you are qualified for Medicare, your medical history can end up looking more complicated as you will be able to do a lot of tests and medical screening for free. Boost your chances for LTC insurance by applying for it earlier, and don’t just think there will be time to get it later.
