Can you get long term care insurance at age 68?

Yes, you can still get long-term care insurance at age 68, however, the premiums you are going to pay will be more expensive compared to someone who got it in a younger age, say like around his 50s. Also, qualifying for the coverage might be more difficult because insurance companies also take in consideration the applicant's health condition. The older you are, the higher the chances that you have health issues that have already started to manifest and this can cause insurance companies to run. But don't be discouraged. The good news is there are companies who would still be willing to insure you.
