Sun Life’s Long-term Care Plan
Many Canadian insurance companies carry a Long-term Care plan, but we know how hard it can be to tell the differences between them all. That is why we have taken the liberty of breaking down three Long-term Care plans from three of Canada’s leading insurance providers.
First in this series is Sun Life Financial:
Pros
Rolling five year guarantee (guaranteed to remain the same for five years).
Zero elimination period available for facility care.
No waiting period if there’s a relapse of illness within 180 days of recovery.
Payment for the longer of 20 years or until the age of 55 is available.
Cons
The premiums are only guaranteed for the first 5 policy years.
The following is an example of pricing for a 60-year-old, female non-smoker: Weekly coverage @ $750 means the facility care monthly payment is $172.80 and the comprehensive benefit is $268,79 with a 90-day waiting period. Premiums are lower for men.
