We all want to believe that we will never be affected by a catastrophic health event. However, we all know as we age that the chances of a debilitating stroke, degenerative disease or other lingering catastrophic illness is quite possible. Senior citizens should research catastrophic health insurance or talk to an insurance provider. Medicare and regular health plans do not have the resources to provide the long term care that is needed in these cases.
With catastrophic health insurance, senior citizens are better prepared for whatever the future holds.
