What Is American Heritage Long Term Care Insurance?

American Heritage Life Insurance Company, a subsidiary of Allstate, offers long-term care insurance policies that are designed to help individuals cover the costs of care when they can no longer perform everyday tasks independently. These policies typically reimburse for services provided in a nursing home, assisted living facility, or the client's home.

Key Features of American Heritage Long Term Care Insurance

• Coverage for Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) assistance
• In-home care benefits for qualifying policyholders
• Daily and lifetime maximum benefit limits
• Elimination periods (waiting periods before benefits begin)
• Reimbursement for licensed agency services like those provided by 7 Day Home Care

If you or your loved one holds a policy through American Heritage, our team can assist in verifying benefits, initiating claims, and maintaining compliance with the policy’s requirements.
