New York Seminar Will Prepare Agents for Long Term Care Insurance Explosion; Flood of Applications Expected Following Recent Legislation
WHITE PLAINS, NY – Apr. 6 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Long term care insurance used to be a hard sell. Now it can be an easy sell, if done right, thanks to insurance-friendly pressure from Washington and Albany. That’s the thrust of a seminar for agents on April 19-21 in White Plains, New York. The Deficit Reduction Act, signed by President Bush on February 8, offers carrot-and-stick incentives for millions of Americans to buy long term care insurance; and the states, including New York, are weighing in with additional incentives. ‘We’re expecting an avalanche of applications,’ says Cameron Truesdell, CEO of LTC Financial Partners, host of the event. ‘But agents can’t handle the load unless they adopt new methods.’
