BBR No. 8689 IRECTORY D ELLOW common behaviors, you can begin to determine whether a loved one is having diffi culty performing ev- eryday activities. Noticing changes in behavior that may be due to an emerging physical or cognitive im- pairment is an important fi rst step. Based on what you observe, the Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program (FLTCIP) may be worth considering when developing your family’s plan for long-term care. How did you answer? Mostly unchanged. The best time for you and your family mem- bers to consider long-term care in- surance is long before it’s needed. Because the FLTCIP is medically underwritten, it’s important to ap- ply while you’re still in good health to avoid the risk that a future illness or medical condition may prevent you from obtaining coverage later. Also, premiums are directly related to age. This means that premiums tend to be lower for younger ap- plicants. Recognized changes. If you’re already a FLTCIP enrollee and rec- ognize some of these behavioral changes in a loved one, contact a FLTCIP care coordinator at the phone number provided at right to gather important information about the different care options that may be available.

Jack Mobley Construction, Inc. STEAM OR DRY Smoke • Water Cleanup Certified-Bonded (NAPSA)—With today’s tech- nology, staying in touch with loved ones around the country—and the world—is easier than it’s ever been. We are connected to each other virtually day and night— from cell phones and video calls to social media, texting and e-mail. While we may rely on this techno- logical closeness throughout the year, the holidays offer a unique opportunity to sit and spend time with family members, particularly older family members, whom we don’t see on a regular basis. This face-to-face time provides a chance to connect, catch up, and observe behaviors that may go undetected over the phone or through e-mail. Certain changes in these behaviors from year to year may indicate a need for long-term care. While each passing year will show some changes in an older family member’s capabilities and function, the table at right provides common changes in behavior to watch for to get a better idea of where your loved ones stand func- tionally. It’s important not to focus on the behavior itself, but rather the change in that behavior compared to what is considered normal for that person. For example, some- one who has always been quiet and somewhat introverted would be held to a different standard than someone who is usually very out- going and conversational, but now seems withdrawn and isolated. Based on the information you gath- er, it may be time to start thinking about your family’s plan for long- term care. The time to plan is now Millions of Americans require long-term care at some point dur- ing their lifetime.* This type of care includes assistance with ev- eryday activities like bathing, dressing and eating, or supervision due to a severe cognitive impair- ment like Alzheimer’s disease. Surprisingly, the type of care need- ed to provide assistance with these activities can be expensive and is generally not covered by traditional health plans or Medicare. In many cases, taking care of an older rela- tive often falls on family members or friends. However, depending on the location of family members and friends, this support is often not available or may be a bigger chal- lenge than many expect or are will- ing to take on.
