 What Might Secure 2.0 Mean for LTC…and what is the future for state LTC legislative proposals

Speaker:

Howard Gleckman

Senior Fellow at The Urban Institute

 ABOUT THE TOPIC:

Secure 2.0 is largely focused on expanding opportunities for employee participation in retirement savings plans and making it easier for employers to offer those plans. Will a renewed focus on saving for retirement raise awareness of the importance of saving for LTC needs?  Will Section 334 that allows penalty-free withdrawal from retirement savings (but not tax-free withdrawal) encourage “on the fence” individuals to purchase LTC insurance?  Will new incentives boost demand for deferred annuity QLAC products? What are the latest rumblings on state-based public long-term care insurance? What other political forces and legislative trends should we be watching?

This session will explore these issues and more.
