Long Term Care Planning in Denver, CO
Long-Term Care Planning
At Springbok Wealth Partners, we understand that planning for your future involves more than just managing investments; it means planning for your well-being as you age. Long-term care is a critical aspect of personal financial planning that is often overlooked but is essential for securing your future. As you navigate the complexities of aging, illness, or disability, having a robust long-term care plan in place can provide the stability and support you and your loved ones need.
Why Long-Term Care Planning Matters
Long-term care refers to the assistance and support services needed for individuals who have difficulty performing basic daily activities due to chronic illness, disability, or aging. These services can include in-home care, health aides, skilled care, or nursing home care. Without proper planning, the long-term care costs associated with these types of care can quickly deplete your savings, impacting your financial security and the inheritance you wish to leave behind.
According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, nearly 70% of people turning age 65 will require some form of long-term care in their lifetime. For the average person, the potential costs of an extended period of care, such as nursing home care, can be overwhelming, with the average annual cost of a private room exceeding $100,000. However, with proactive planning and strategic decision-making, you can mitigate these risks, protect your assets, and ensure your financial independence throughout your life.

Key Considerations in Long-Term Care Planning
When it comes to long-term care planning, there are several key considerations to keep in mind:
Start Early
Long-term care planning is most effective when started early, ideally before the need arises. By planning ahead, you can explore a wider range of options, such as life insurance policies with long-term care riders or standalone long-term care coverage, potentially securing more favorable terms and lower costs.
Understand Your Options
There are various long-term care insurance products available, each with its own features and benefits. Our advisors will help you navigate these options, whether you’re considering traditional long-term care insurance, life insurance policies with built-in long-term care riders, or other financial strategies that can provide long-term care coverage and a death benefit.
Asset Protection
Long-term care expenses can quickly erode your savings and assets. We’ll work with you to develop strategies for protecting your assets and preserving your financial security. This might include setting up trusts, leveraging long-term care insurance, or integrating long-term care coverage into your broader retirement planning strategy.
Tax Considerations
Certain long-term care insurance policies may offer tax advantages, such as tax-free benefits or deductions. We'll help you explore these opportunities, ensuring that your long-term care plan is tax-efficient and beneficial for your overall financial strategy.
Review and Update Regularly
Your long-term care needs may evolve over time, so it’s essential to review and update your plan periodically. Regular reviews help ensure that your plan remains aligned with your current goals, health status, and financial situation, as well as any changes in the type of care you may require.
