Long Term Care Insurance Association Launches Expanded Agent Look-Up Feature

Los Angeles, CA, October 24, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Consumers looking for long term care insurance agents can now access an expanded Find a Long Term Care Insurance Professional online search tool available on the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance website.

"Getting objective information is more vital than ever because there are significant differences between various long term care insurance policies," shares Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long Term Care Insurance, the long term care insurance trade group. The organization's website contains the largest compendium of information on the topic of long term care planning and long term care insurance options.

The Association announced the expansion of the feature that allows consumers to utilize a simple online look-up to find a local long term care insurance professional. "The most important decision you'll make when starting the planning process is deciding who to work with," Slome explains.

A good long-term care insurance specialist will be appointed to compare policies from at least four or five long term care insurance companies. The Association suggests three questions to determine an insurance professional's expertise in the field. How many years have you focused on long term care planning? How many long term care insurance policies have you sold? How many long term care insurers are you appointed with?

Consumers seeking information or prices for long term care insurance can also call the Association's national offices to be connected with a long term care insurance designated professional who is a member of the Association. For no-obligation information, call the organization at (818) 597-3227.
