		<description><![CDATA[No these are two totally separate types of insurance plans used to cover totally different needs.

Disability insurance can be either long term or short term. Long term disability is used to replace your income for the rest of your working life. It usually has a bit longer elimination period 90-180-360 days before benefits begin to pay. The benefits can pay as long as age 67 when social security benefits start. A short term disability insurance plan pays benefits sooner within days, but only lasts a few months or up to a couple of years. Both disability insurance plans are insuring most peoples most valuable asset, their ability to earn a living. Disability insurance should be purchased when a person starts working for a living.

Long term care insurance is meant to cover a person that can no longer care for themselves. The person needs home health care, assisted living or a nursing home. Usually the time to purchase a long term care policy is when a person gets older, typically in their 50s or 60s, but some wait until their 70s. It really depends more upon their health and lifestyle. Just don&#039;t wait until you have been diagnosed with an affliction, then is too late.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No, Disability insurance is not the same as long term care insurance. Disability insurance replaces part of the income that was lost by becoming disabled. The benefit is based on the Insured&#039;s income. Long term care insurance pays for care received for extended care needs on a reimbursement basis (where the money goes to the care providers) or on an indemnity basis (where the money goes to the insured, who in turn pays the bills). The benefit is based on the Insured&#039;s anticipation of long term care expenses in the future in their area.]]></description>
