Employers, including the federal government, are increasingly offering group long-term care insurance as a workplace benefit. To obtain additional information, the University of Minnesota Extension “Resource Center for Families” Web site on long-term care topics offers unbiased information with no financial or long-term care products to sell. The Web site provides up-to-date information on long-term care risks, costs, and financing alternatives. Interactive planning and assessment tools, fact sheets, myths and facts, conversation starters, and an online self-study are examples of decision-making resources you will find. We would like your feedback on this Personal Finance Frequently Asked Question.
