Indemnity Model policies pay the insured person a flat amount regardless of the
amount of the insured person's qualified long term care expenses.
Indemnity Example 1
Judy purchases an Indemnity Long-Term Care Insurance Policy with coverage of
$150 per day. Judy later needs Home Health Care services and the cost is $80
per day. Judy's Indemnity insurance coverage would pay her $150 per day of service even though her expenses are only $80. Judy can use the extra $70 in
any way she sees fit.
Indemnity Example 2
Len purchases an Indemnity Long-Term Care Insurance Policy with coverage of
$150 per day. Len later needs Home Health Care services and the cost is $200
per day. Len's Indemnity insurance coverage would pay him $150 per day of service even though his expenses are $200. Len would be financially
responsible for the extra $50.
