Optional Riders
There are also many riders to choose from, to add specific benefits that fit your family’s needs best. Between the policy benefit options, inflation protection options and rider options, you can elect to cover some, or nearly all your expected long-term care needs. Optional long-term care policy riders include:

Elimination Period
This is the waiting period before benefits begin. The elimination period starts on the first day you are chronically ill and receive a covered service. Like most long-term care insurance policies, the elimination period is 90 days. Your policy waives the elimination period for the cash benefit option of home health care benefits.
