SmartLife vs Long-Term Care Insurance

Home » Investment » SmartLife vs Long-Term Care Insurance

SmartLife offers access to Willow Valley Communities

Some say that SmartLife VIA Willow Valley sounds a lot like Long-Term Care Insurance. They are not at all alike. There are significant differences between the two. SmartLife offers you a more comprehensive and cost-effective plan for long-term care protection, including access to Willow Valley Communities should your health care needs change and you require personal care or skilled nursing care.
