Reverse Mortgages – The Basics• A loan that allows homeowners age 62+ to convert
home equity into cash while living at home for as long as they want.
• Can receive payments as a lump sum, line of credit, monthly payments (for up to life in the home).
• Funds can be used for any purpose, and are tax-free. • Loan comes due when the (last) borrower moves out,
dies, sells the home, or stays in a nursing home over 12 months.
• Borrowers continue to own the home. They are responsible for repairs, insurance, and taxes.

they want without making a monthly payment.

P R O V I D E R S
RMs and LTCi Have a Lot in Common
• Both are part of LTC Planning.
• Both are funding sources for LTC.
• Both help people to stay in their own home.– Rather than going into NH or ALF.– Rather than moving in with kids.
• But, both are discouraged by Medicaid treatment of the home.
![Page 14: POLICY&PROVIDERSPOLICY&PROVIDERS HOME EQUITY: A RESOURCE FOR LTC & LTCI Session 31: February 28, 2006 Session Producer: Barbara R. Stucki, Ph.D. Project.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649de45503460f94adab11/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

P O L I C Y

P R O V I D E R S
RMs and LTCi have differences
• RMs are more suitable for the less affluent.
• RMs cost less when interest rates are low; LTCi is less expensive in high interest environments (ignoring opportunity cost).
• RMs structured to be variable in price; LTCi intends level predictable cost.
• RMs are same cost whether treated like cash benefit or reimbursement.
![Page 15: POLICY&PROVIDERSPOLICY&PROVIDERS HOME EQUITY: A RESOURCE FOR LTC & LTCI Session 31: February 28, 2006 Session Producer: Barbara R. Stucki, Ph.D. Project.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649de45503460f94adab11/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
P O L I C Y
&
P R O V I D E R S
Can RMs Help Less Affluent People Purchase LTCi?
• Expensive: loan cost + premium cost.
• Risk of inability to pay for LTCi, especially if there is a premium increase.
• Risk needing low level services but cash-poor and, due to LTCi, RM unavailable.
• Could lose house whether or not LTC is eventually needed.
![Page 16: POLICY&PROVIDERSPOLICY&PROVIDERS HOME EQUITY: A RESOURCE FOR LTC & LTCI Session 31: February 28, 2006 Session Producer: Barbara R. Stucki, Ph.D. Project.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649de45503460f94adab11/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

P O L I C Y
&
P R O V I D E R S
Can RMs Help the More Affluent Purchase LTCi?
• 60% of those who could qualify for RMs are not candidates for Medicaid.
• Generally don’t need RM to afford LTCi.
• In the past, could take RM and use proceeds to buy LTCi and life insurance that would replace loan.– Now LTCi is more expensive, esp. for singles.– UL less attractive with lower interest rates.
![Page 17: POLICY&PROVIDERSPOLICY&PROVIDERS HOME EQUITY: A RESOURCE FOR LTC & LTCI Session 31: February 28, 2006 Session Producer: Barbara R. Stucki, Ph.D. Project.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649de45503460f94adab11/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

RM Annuitant Life Expectancy
• Less affluent RM users likely to have shorter average life expectancy; lenders and insurers do very well.
• More affluent RM users likely to have longer average life expectancy and more able to anti-select; lenders and insurers do less well.

P R O V I D E R S
Use of Home Equity as “Safety Valve” for LTCi
• RM: method of dealing with rate increase.
• RM or home sale as way to cover LTC needs exceeding a limited BP.
• Buy LTCi w/lower daily benefit assuming home sale or RM will fund institutional cost.
• Buy longer EP, relying on potential RM or home sale to fund EP.
![Page 19: POLICY&PROVIDERSPOLICY&PROVIDERS HOME EQUITY: A RESOURCE FOR LTC & LTCI Session 31: February 28, 2006 Session Producer: Barbara R. Stucki, Ph.D. Project.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649de45503460f94adab11/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

P R O V I D E R S
CONCLUSIONLTCi and RMs are Complementary• Serve different economic strata.
• Greatest overlap: RM as safety valve or extender of LTCi, not as $ source for LTCi.
• Ability to do both LTCi & RMs can be great positioning; may become more common.
• Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA05) will help BOTH markets.

Medicaid is a Great Program
for Long-Term Care
1. Provides LTC for destitute people.
2. Loans $ so other people don’t have to sell their home to pay for care.
– People can return to their home. – Spouses can stay in the home.

Paying back Medicaid*
...
• Federal law requires estate recovery. NOT a permanent exemption.
• Estate recovery intended to provide funds to other needy people
• Recovery from “destitute”
is roundly criticized.* As required by Public Law 104-191

Positive Medicaid Reform
• Take Medicaid out of the loan business.
• Instead create government-backed private industry loans.
• So people with illiquid assets get a private loan instead of going on Medicaid.

referring the business away. • Using the reverse mortgage as a planning tool is a
new and innovative way to market your services. • Long-term care planning AND crisis management can
