Hybrid Life Long Term Care Products
Hybrid life long term care products are designed to offer both long term care and life benefits.

John Hancock
Plan has standard underwriting. The product is offered on a guaranteed UL platform so it will note lapse but has limited gain potential. They have a true LTC rider which follows the rules of a normal/traditional LTC plan and will pay out 100% of the death benefit as a long term care benefit. Of the three life pay products listed here, the Hancock policy will have the lowest annual premium.
