The world has changed…
I think it is safe to say that the world has changed drastically in the last few months. As with any change, some of it might be for the better and some might not be. In the insurance world, one thing that has changed is the ability to get Long Term Care after the age of 65. Let’s face it, a lot of us don’t really start thinking about it until we start thinking about retirement.
