Whole Life Insurance from Allstate Benefits is a type of insurance coverage that provides you with a death benefit that accumulates cash value along the way. You can elect a benefit amount from $25,000 to $175,000. You can also purchase Whole Life Insurance coverage for your spouse from $10,000 to $75,000. When you purchase this coverage, it also includes an Accelerated Death Benefit for Long Term Care at no additional cost. This benefit pays 6% of your death benefit for up to 34 months of treatment for qualified long term care services and is paid in addition to your death benefit, providing you with an affordable option for Long Term Care coverage.

Long term care is an important option to consider as 70% of people over the age of 65 will require long term care and the average nursing home cost is more than $93,000 each year. Long term care often causes financial strain as nearly 50% of families are not prepared for the expense.
