Dear Guild Member:
Last year, for the first time, the Guild offered a Long Term Care
Insurance program to members in good standing.
There was,
and continues to be, considerable interest from the membership.
As a
follow up to last year’s informational seminars, we have arranged for two
new open forum meetings to review the program, to answer your specific
questions and to address your special issues.
The
program, offered through The Prudential Life Insurance Company of New York,
offers special discounted coverage to help meet the cost of private nursing
home care and home care, (currently averaging $350 per day, in a facility and
$18 per hour, at home).
This
coverage is available to Guild members, their spouses, domestic partners,
parents, in-laws, grandparents, grandparents-in-law, siblings and children
over the age of 18.
The New
York Guild’s Long Term Care Insurance Consultant, Arlene Resnick, of CORE
Benefits Group, Inc., will be holding twp meetings at the Guild headquarters
on Wednesday, March 30, 2005. Session
One begins at 12:00 noon. Session
Two begin at 5:30 P.M. The New
York Guild is located in Suite 708, 1501 Broadway (between 43rd and
44th Streets), in New York.
Please call Patty or Evette at the Guild, at 212-575-1580, to reserve a
spot at one of the two sessions.
We look forward to seeing you there.
In Unity,
Barry F. Lipton William J. O’Meara
President Secretary-Treasurer
