Description: Insurance covering long-term care insurance is an insurance market with unmet needs. Long tailed liabilities and historical pricing challenges have left relatively few carriers selling into the market.

Combination products have a long market history, but continue to evolve. Key recent developments to be discussed include: - Market participating (indexed or variable) products to replace flat inflation guarantees - Worksite/group markets with portable products to augment and shield retirement savings against catastrophic LTC events. - Renewed focus on joint products with appropriate features to balance risk and LTC benefits per premium dollar. Public and private cooperation to manage the risk pool and extend public funding to cover key coverage gaps.
