Insurance for Retirees

Insurance Specialist
Serving Citrus Park, Fl

What Types of Insurance Do I Need When I Retire?

Retirees may need a variety of insurance, including:

  • Health insurance: Medicare is often the primary health insurance for retirees, but some may need additional coverage. This could include a supplemental plan, Medigap or Part D, or a Medicare Advantage Plan.
  • Long-term care insurance: This insurance can help protect your family and relieve financial and emotional stress if you need long-term care.
  • Life insurance: This insurance can help your loved ones financially if you die, and can help them reach their financial goals.
  • Umbrella insurance: This insurance can provide additional liability coverage beyond what your homeowner’s or auto insurance covers. It can help protect your retirement savings if you’re involved in a lawsuit or other legal action.
  • Annuities: These long-term insurance products can help you convert your money into a steady income stream.
  • Travel insurance: This insurance is available for older people, but it may be more expensive because of the higher risk category.

RETIRING FAQ
Citrus Park, Florida

In Citrus Park, Florida, Life insurance for retirees works the same way as most term or permanent policies: If you pass away, the death benefit is meant to help replace your income and help your beneficiaries pay your final expenses.

There is no break in coverage between your employment coverage and your retirement coverage. If you don’t want your health benefits to continue into retirement, you can cancel your coverage through your employer before you retire in Citrus Park, Florida.

At What Age Is Life Insurance No Longer Needed in Citrus Park, Florida? Many people no longer need life insurance once they reach their 60s or 70s. They have retired, their kids have grown up, and they’ve paid off their mortgage and other debt.
