SPECIAL NEEDS PLANNING PROGRAM
Why This Program
At approximately 20% of the population, adults with disabilities represent the largest minority in the world. With almost 9.5 million children with special healthcare needs and another three million with other disabilities, this is not a market to be overlooked; but it is overlooked, and especially so in the insurance and financial services industry. This presents multifaceted risks that include:
Families
-
- Not being educated on the issues that impact planning for the future of their children with special needs, especially the legal and financial issues
- Understanding the need, but unsure of who the local resources are.
- Insufficient planning for the parents/caregivers own retirement, disability, and long-term care and/or for the other children’s education, etc.
- The Disabled Beneficiary loses government benefit eligibility; limited or complete loss of assets.
- A lifetime of concern and worry about their child’s future when they become disabled or die.
Financial Services Professionals
-
- Not being educated on the issues impacting planning for the future of children with special needs, especially the legal and financial issues.
- Causing the Disabled Beneficiary to lose government benefit eligibility, limited or a complete loss of assets, causing quality of life to be significantly reduced or eliminated
- Insufficient planning for the parents/caregivers own retirement, disability, long-term care, and/or for the other children’s education, etc.
- A complaint that could result in legal action against the financial services professional and his/her company.
