How benefits are paid

Some policies pay cash directly to you

One of the most valuable features of modern long-term care coverage is how the benefit reaches you. Traditional policies reimburse you for care after you submit receipts. But many of today’s plans — including cash (indemnity) benefit designs — pay a set amount directly to you each month once you qualify, to use however you choose.

Why the cash benefit matters: You can use the money to pay a family member who cares for you, cover home modifications, hire help, or anything else — no receipts, no reimbursement paperwork, no restrictions on which provider you use. For many families, that flexibility is the whole point: the care happens at home, on your terms, and the benefit simply shows up.

Nationwide CareMatters® long-term care solutions

As an appointed Nationwide agency, we offer their CareMatters family of long-term care products — built around the cash-benefit approach:

  • CareMatters II — a linked-benefit (hybrid) universal life policy with a cash indemnity benefit: once you qualify, Nationwide pays 100% of your approved monthly benefit directly to you, with no monthly bills or receipts to submit. If you never use the care benefit, a guaranteed minimum death benefit still passes to your family.
  • CareMatters Together — a joint-life version for couples, with a shared pool of long-term care benefits either partner can use.
  • CareMatters Annuity — an annuity-based option (single premium or 1035 exchange) that can multiply your contract value for tax-advantaged long-term care.
  • Long-Term Care Rider II — an optional add-on available on many Nationwide permanent life insurance policies.

Pay a family caregiver. Because CareMatters pays cash, you can use the benefit to pay a family member, friend, or neighbor who cares for you — as long as a licensed health care practitioner approves the care plan. (Paying a family caregiver can have tax implications, so we’d point you to a tax professional on the specifics.)

We work with Nationwide and other leading carriers that offer cash-benefit and hybrid long-term care solutions. Whether you want a traditional LTC policy, a cash-indemnity plan that pays you directly, or a hybrid life + LTC policy that protects your premium either way, we’ll walk you through the options and find the right fit for your health and budget.

Medicare does NOT cover long-term care. It only pays up to 100 days of skilled nursing after a hospital stay — not ongoing help with daily living. Most people learn this too late to plan.
