Medicare beneficiaries have an unlimited number of benefit periods covered by hospital insurance during their lifetime. Each benefit period begins when an individual is admitted as an inpatient to a hospital or skilled nursing facility, and ends once they have been out of the hospital or facility for 60 consecutive days.
The benefit period for long term care insurance can vary and typically ranges from two to five years. Some policies offer lifetime coverage, providing benefits for as long as the insured requires long term care. It's important to carefully review your policy to understand the specifics of the benefit period.
"Register for lifetime" typically means that an individual or entity is entering an agreement or program that provides benefits or services for the duration of their lifetime. This can apply to memberships, warranties, licenses, or other ongoing commitments that last until the individual's death.
A lifetime annuity is a financial product that provides a stream of income payments to an individual for the rest of their life. It is typically purchased with a lump sum amount, and the amount of the payments is determined by factors such as the individual's age, gender, and life expectancy. Lifetime annuities offer a way to secure a guaranteed income for retirement or to provide financial security in old age.
Life contingency refers to the probability of certain events occurring during a person's lifetime, such as death or survival to a specific age. It is often used in actuarial science and insurance to calculate the likelihood and impact of such events on financial planning and risk management.
True. A well-chosen lifetime activity is one that keeps a person engaged and interested for the long term, providing enjoyment and fulfillment over the years.
There is no limit to the number of days a patient stays in a hospital under Medicare. The following is directly from the "Medicare and You 2009" book. These figures are the amount of money that you will pay if you only have Medicare without a Medicare Supplement Plan or a Medicare Advantage Plan to offset these costs. You can view the entire book here: http://www.medicare.gov/Publications/Pubs/pdf/10050.pdf You pay: $1,068 deductible and no coinsurance for days 1-60 each benefit period $267 per day for days 61-90 each benefit period $534 per "lifetime reserve day" after day 90 each benefit period (up to 60 days over your lifetime) All costs for each day after the lifetime reserve days.

Many times lifetime caps start over with new insurance. You may find more relevant information at http://www.hemophiliagalaxy.com/patients/insurance/faqs/lc.html
Many lifetime max limits are between $1M and $5M.
Yes. Once a lifetime, and only if it is within 6 months of extractions.
It is estimated that during one's lifetime they will be admitted to a hospital every 17 years and be seen in an emergency room every 3 years
Actually, with recent health reform changes, there are no lifetime caps any more.
Insurance
On a healthcare policy, the lifetime max is the absolute most amount of money the insurance company will pay for your medical expenses. For instance, if the lifetime max on your plan says two million dollars, then as soon as the insurance company has paid two million dollars worth of your medical bills, the insurance will stop paying your bills and you will have to pay everything after that.
There is no lifetime cap on Medicare benefits. This may make some think that this feature makes it preferable to private insurance. However, the reality may be otherwise, depending upon individual situations. For example, some medical practitioners may be hesitant to take new Medicare patients because of the severe limitations that the government places upon reimbursements. To them, it is better to refuse to treat those patients because the reimbursement rate is insufficient, and, because the government runs the program, the quality of care may be more of a politically dictated issue than it is a medical one. Consequently, needed medical care may become unavailable. Therefore, the question is not so much whether medicare will run out, but whether it is quality care or will remain available due to lack of providers.
You can receive any final benefits available and you can purchase a new policy since the lifetime limits have been exhausted on that policy.
We all do in the long run. It provides income to those who have worked their lifetime and have contributed (along with their employers) into the program. The beneficiaries are survivors of the contributor, the disabled, medicare recipients, and retired people.
