Long-term care isn’t fully covered by Medicare — here’s how to protect yourself
Almost half of Americans over 65 will eventually need some form of long-term care — whether that’s help with bathing, dressing, meal prep or managing medications.
The catch? Medicare and Medigap typically don’t cover those costs unless they’re tied to medical treatment. That means you often have to pay for in-home assistance or nursing home care out of pocket — and those expenses can add up fast.
Medicare's annual enrollment period starts Wednesday. While you make your coverage choices, it may also be worth exploring other long-term care protection options that can help safeguard your health and your finances.

Message From the Publisher
When I reached 65, I realized that approximately 10,000 Baby Boomers will turn 65 every day over the next four years. In addition, over 50 million people are already 65+. I believe our generation deserves its own free, ad-supported, daily lifestyle newsletter with interesting news and fun facts created just for us. I hope you enjoy!
