What shapes life insurance conversion for senior care here
Some families convert an existing life-insurance policy into a long-term-care benefit account rather than surrendering it for cash value or letting it lapse. The conversion pays a monthly benefit toward care, often at more than the cash-surrender value, and the funds are typically tax-advantaged when used for qualified care. It's worth pricing against simply keeping or borrowing against the policy.
