2026 Permanent Life Insurance with Long Term Care

Dalton Public Schools is excited to offer a new permanent life insurance option through Chubb that includes a valuable long term care (LTC) benefit. The plan provides term life coverage and the death benefit is guaranteed 100% when it is needed most - during the working years when a family relies most on income.  The death benefit is 100% guaranteed for the longer of 25 years or through age 70.  After age 70, the death benefit is guaranteed to never be less than 50% of the original death benefit.  Long term care insurance may help you avoid a far more difficult decision: whether to exhaust your savings or liquidate your assets to pay for a period of long term care.

 

Premium Information

Important Documents

Long Term Care is costly and averages $8,821 per month for a semi-private room in a nursing home. The Chubb Lifetime Benefit Term plan can pay death benefits in advance of death if you require long term care. You can use these benefits for home health care, assisted living, adult day care, and nursing home care. The long term care benefit is 4% of the death benefit for up to 50 months. Long term care benefits could reduce in the event of a life insurance benefit reduction.

Paid Up Death Benefit


After 10 years, paid-up benefits begin to accrue. At any point thereafter, if you stop paying the premium, a reduced paid-up benefit is available and can never lapse. That means at retirement you can stop paying premiums and have a death benefit for the rest of your life - guaranteed.

Guaranteed Premiums


Life insurance premiums will never increase and are guaranteed through age 100. After age 100, no additional premium is due while the coverage can continue to age 121.

Benefits for Long Term Care (LTC)


Ordinarily, using your life insurance coverage for Long Term Care benefits can reduce your death benefit to $0. While in force, this benefit restores your life coverage to not less than 50% of the death benefit on which your LTC benefits were based. This feature assures a death benefit is available for the insured at time of death.

How It Works


Here’s how Chubb’s Permanent Life Insurance with Long Term Care benefit can provide financial support:

Example 1: An employee elects a $25,000 policy at age 45. At age 57, they require long term care, and the plan pays $1,000 per month for up to 50 months*. After using 13 months of the benefit (a total of $13,000), the employee passes away at age 67, leaving a death benefit of $12,000.

Example 2: An employee selects a $100,000 policy at age 45. At age 57, they need long term care, and the plan pays $4,000 per month for up to 50 months*. After using 13 months (a total of $52,000), the employee passes away at age 67, leaving a death benefit of $48,000.

 

* Once the full death benefit has been paid in advance for LTC, payments can be extended. Extension of Benefit may extend the same monthly LTC benefit for up to an additional 25 months, doubling the value.
