Which rider is designed to help pay for expenses in a nursing home?

• A. Options
• B. Accelerated Benefit
• C. Long Term Care Rider
• D. Living Needs Rider

Answer: (C)

Long-Term Care Rider is designed to provide funds specifically to cover long‑term care costs, including nursing home expenses. It kicks in when the insured needs help with daily activities or has cognitive impairment, paying a daily or monthly benefit for a set period to help cover nursing home or related care costs. This direct focus on long‑term care costs is what makes it the best fit for paying nursing home expenses. Accelerated Benefit Rider, while useful, provides early access to a portion of the death benefit for certain conditions and isn’t exclusively about nursing home costs. Living Needs Rider is broader and not as closely tied to nursing home expenses.
