When reaching the latter years of life, it is important to have certain things in place to maintain the standard of living you are used to, and to have the finances to support paying for home care or obtaining a paid caregiver. When faced with these decisions, there are a number of solutions that may work for you. One solution is selling a term life insurance policy through a reverse life insurance policy or a life settlement, which can give you a peace of mind, and the funds needed to do what you need while ensuring your care is in place.

AARP shared the story of Patricia McCormack, whose mother was suffering from the initial stages of Alzheimer’s disease. Living in another state, the costs quickly escalated when having to travel to care for her mother, then finding the treatment would most likely include care in a locked memory care facility. These costs were over $108,000. After the treatment, her mother needed to reside in assisted living facility, which was $84,000. Neither the treatment or assisted living facility was covered by Medicaid.
