Long Term Care is the type of care that you may need if you can no longer perform “activities of daily living” by yourself, such as eating, bathing or getting dressed. It also includes the kind of care you would need if you had a severe cognitive impairment like “Alzheimer’s disease. For additional information visit: http://www.opm.gov/insure/ltc/

The following is a special message from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) on Long Term Care:

Dear Federal Family Member,

I don't know if I'll ever need long term care. Neither do you. But I know that I’ll be prepared because I have coverage under the Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program (FLTCIP). Do you?

Did you know that a video is available to help you learn more about the FLTCIP? This 17-minute video introduces the importance of long term care planning and how the FLTCIP can help you prepare for future long term care needs.

The FLTCIP video is available in VHS, DVD, and CD Rom format and is closed captioned ready.

Order your complimentary copy of the FLTCIP Video by visiting: www.LTCFEDS.com/info or, you may call 1-800-LTC-FEDS (1-800-582-3337); TTY: 1-800-843-3557.

Sincerely,

Dan G. Blair

Deputy Director
