- A Mutual of Omaha long-term care insurance policy will pay benefits for services you receive at home, in an assisted living facility and in a nursing home
When am I eligible to receive benefits?

- You are chronically ill meaning you require assistance performing at least two of the six activities of daily living for a period expected to last at least 90 consecutive days
- Or you need continual supervision due to a severe cognitive impairment
- And recommended services are included under your policy
When will benefits be payable?

- If you elect to be reimbursed for actual long-term care expenses, your policy will begin paying benefits after you satisfy the policy’s elimination period
