Webinar, July 13th: NEW Long Term Care Mandate for Washington Residents

Sponsored by United Agencies Insurance

Please join us on Tuesday, July 13, 2021 10:30AM to 11:30AM (PDT) for our upcoming webinar entitled, “NEW Long Term Mandate for Washington Residents - What We Need to Know.”

New for 2022 is the Washington State Mandate for the WA Cares Fund (formerly the LTC Trust Act) which creates a publicly funded, long-term care benefit providing a basic level of long-term care for working Washington residents. In this webinar, we will cover the following aspects of this new mandate and how it affects Washington residents (and beyond), if this measure makes traction to other states:

• What is the Mandate and What Do I Need to Do?
• What is Long Term Care? What is Long Term Care Insurance?
• What is the Tax?
• Who is Subject to the Tax?
• What does the State Program Provide (Washington Cares Fund)?
• How Can I Opt-Out and be Exempt from this New Payroll Tax?
• Should I Get My Own LTC Insurance Policy, and How?
• What is the Timeline and Is This Actually Going to be Required (ERISA concerns)?
