period. The premium remains the same from year to year and is more than

actual cost in the later years. The excess paid in the early years builds up a
reserve to cover the higher cost in the later years.

16. Long term care insurance
A health-insurance variation designed to cover the costs of long term care at
home or in a nursing home. These policies offer a specified nursing home
benefit and home-care benefit. Some policies also account for inflation. The
popularity of long term care insurance has grown as federal laws have
changed, making it less likely that Medicaid will pick up the tab for long term
care. These policies are usually rather expensive, and grow even more costly
as the policyholder ages.

17. long-term disability income insurance (LTD)
Plan that helps replace income lost through inability to work because of
disability caused by an accident or illness.
