CALIFORNIA PARTNERSHIP FOR LONG-TERM CARE

   
Information provided by: Riverside County Office on Aging

Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) has just begun (1994) offering a long-term care benefit to its active retired members. The State of California has launched an insurance program called the California Partnership for Long Term Care, which allows long-term care policyholders to preserve assets in the event they go on Medicaid. California public partnership allows a policy holder to qualify for Medicaid without a complete spend-down. To participate in the partnership which was enacted July 2, 1994, insurance companies must meet certain design specifications. For example, policies must include protection against inflation and policy forfeiture, and they can provide lifetime benefits. Here is how it works: Policies: Consumers may buy policies covering one to five years of long-term care, with maximum coverage to $200,000. There are two types of policies: one covers only stays in nursing homes and the other covers both institutional and home care. Consumer protection: Policy features are standardized and approved by the state. They include an inflation adjustment, minimum daily benefits, care plans drawn up by independent professionals and an appeals process. Call to find out which Insurance companies selling the policies. The (800) number puts you in touch with the Brochure desk in Seattle. State Department of Health, non-profit.
