March 19, 2018

We Work with Many Baltimore Long Term Care Insurance Companies

LTC Insurance Accepted by BrightStar Care of Baltimore

BrightStar Care of Baltimore City/County, is a private duty home care agency that accepts a variety of Long Term Care, (LTC), Insurance policies. LTC Insurance is generally purchased later in life when an individual is in their 50’s or 60’s and they pay an annual premium to maintain the insurance.

We help our clients understand and process their Long Term Care Insurance (LTC) claim.  We can bill your LTC directly by sending the bill and required documentation directly to your insurance company.  There are two common payment scenarios that we encounter. An insurance companies may allot a sum of money to a policy holder who then may use the funds to pay for their services at BrightStar. The second, most common payment scenario is when a client has an LTC insurance policy that reimburses payments for services. To be fully reimbursed, caregiver notes must be dated and legible with explicitly stated activities of daily life, (ADL) coding that matches the Plan of Care to ensure correct reimbursement and billing. We then submit the documentation on your behalf on a weekly basis.

Currently, we service clients with the following LTC Insurance companies:

  • CalPERS/PERS
  • Genworth
  • John Hancock
  • Transamerica
  • Bankers Life
  • State Farm
  • Bankers Conseco
  • Met Life, Metropolitan
  • Prudential
  • Penn Treaty
  • UNUM
