J.K.
Lasser's Choosing the Right Long-Term Care Insurance
by Ben Lipson
From the Publisher
"An indispensable book for all those concerned that the cost of health care will rob their old age of dignity and independence.
The author, Ben Lipson, an articulate advocate of patient rights and an authority on health insurance, provides a lucid road map in a terrain mined with hokum." (Bernard Lown, M.D., winner of the Nobel Peace Prize)
"Next to buying the right long-term care insurance, buying and reading J.K.
Lasser's Choosing the Right Long-Term Care Insurance is the best investment seniors and their families can make to help insure independence and dignity in their golden years." ( Scott Harshbarger, President and CEO, Common Cause)
"Ben Lipson has written what is sure to become the standard text on the subject of long-term care insurance. His analysis is clearly written, exhaustive, and always focused on the needs of the consumer. If you are trying to decide whether you need long-term care insurance, there is no substitute for reading this book." ( Peter Hiam, attorney and former Massachusetts Commissioner of Insurance )(1983-1987).
"Long-term care insurance is a much needed and valuable insurance concept, marketed in a maze filled with smoke and mirrors. Most of what passes for consumer guidance is just general information and superficial advice. But, Ben Lipson's book takes you by the hand, leads you through the insurance labyrinth, and shines a much needed light on the product." (
Charlie Sabatino, President, National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys)"
