LTC Cost of Care

Tools · Long-term care planning

What will care cost, and can your client cover it?

Look up long-term care costs in your client’s area using CareScout survey data, then use our Self-Funding Calculator to see how a care event could affect their assets.

Adult day health

Daytime care and support in a community setting.

Assisted living

Step one · Cost of care

Look up care costs by location.

Powered by CareScout’s Cost of Care survey. Search a location, choose hourly, daily, monthly or annual figures, and slide forward to see projected future costs.

Cost figures are provided by CareScout and reflect survey data for the area selected. Actual costs vary by provider and change over time. CareScout’s guide to the cost of long-term care
Step two · Self-funding

Can your client pay for care on their own?

Once you have a local cost figure, take it into our LTC Self-Funding Calculator. It shows how a care event could draw down your client’s assets over time, so you can decide together whether to self-fund, insure, or do some of both.
