Important: If you are a veteran or a veterans widow you must read this!
The VA has a little known benefit called Aid and Attendance which gives veterans and their spouses income to pay for the cost of Assisted Living or Homebound Care. A large percentage of Veterans will qualify for this benefit, yet less than 5% receive it due to the lack of knowledge that exists about the benefit. It can change your life and that of your loved ones!
How much is the Aid and Attendance Benefit?
For 2009 the maximum annual benefit of those qualifying for the Aid and Attendance benefit is:
- Surviving Spouse of a Veteran: $12,660
- Both Veteran and Spouse needing care: $23,388
- Only Veteran needing care: $19,584
- Spouse requires care but veteran is healthy: $15,493
This benefit will greatly increase the quality of care for you or your loved one.

What is a Life Settlement?
Often when looking at the assets we have available to pay for long-term care, we overlook one of the most important assets we have - life insurance. Up until a few years ago in-force life insurance policies were only worth what the insurance company would pay us for surrendering the policy. Since the insurance company was the only market for the policy, the surrender value was usually fairly low. Today there are companies that will purchase life policies for amounts that usually far exceed the amount your insurance company will give you. These companies are called Life Settlement companies. Over the last few years they have grown rapidly because of the advantages they offer to seniors. |
