When choosing a product, make sure that life insurance and long-term care insurance needs are met. Because personal situations may change (i.e., marriage, birth of a child or job promotion), so can life insurance and long-term care insurance needs. Care should be taken to ensure these strategies and products are suitable. Associated costs, as well as personal and financial objectives, time horizons and risk tolerance, should all be weighed before purchasing a product. Life insurance, and long-term care coverage linked to life insurance, has fees and charges associated with it that include costs of insurance, which vary based on characteristics of the insured such as sex, tobacco use, health and age; and additional charges for riders that customize a policy to fit individual needs.

This policy has exclusions, limitations and terms under which the policy may be continued in force or discontinued. For costs and complete details of the coverage, call your producer or Nationwide. You can reach Nationwide at 1-866-207-9160.
