Prepare Before You Need It
Long-term care planning in Illinois gives you control over your care, savings, and peace of mind.
At StAK Insurance Solutions, we help families understand long-term care options, from in-home services to hybrid life policies, so you can protect assets and make confident choices before care is needed.
Nearly 70% of people over 65 will need some form of long-term care during their lifetime, whether in-home care, assisted living, or a nursing facility. These costs can be staggering, averaging $100,000 per year for nursing home care in Illinois. For current data on nursing home costs in Illinois, visit the Illinois Department of Public Health, an official source for statewide averages and facility regulations.

The Right Life Insurance for Every Stage of Life
TERM LIFE INSURANCE
Term life provides coverage for a set period, usually 10, 20, or 30 years, and is often the most affordable way to get a large amount of protection. It’s perfect if you’re in your working years and need to:
- Replace income while kids are in school
- Cover a mortgage or home equity loan
- Provide financial education and stability until retirement savings mature
When the term ends, you can either renew coverage, convert to permanent coverage (in many cases), or let the policy expire if you no longer need it.
WHOLE LIFE & PERMANENT COVERAGE
Permanent life insurance lasts for as long as you live and may build cash value over time. This makes it an attractive option if you want lifelong protection or the ability to borrow against your policy in the future.
- Whole Life: Level premiums and guaranteed coverage for life.
- Universal Life: Flexible premiums with potential cash value growth.
- Indexed Universal Life: Offers market-linked growth potential with downside protection.
Permanent coverage can be a valuable tool for estate planning, tax-advantaged wealth transfer, and even supplementing retirement income.
FINAL EXPENSE INSURANCE
Final expense policies are small, affordable policies designed to cover funeral costs, medical bills, and outstanding debts. They are often easier to qualify for and may require minimal health questions.
This type of coverage provides comfort, knowing your loved ones won’t have to worry about unexpected expenses during a difficult time.
LIVING BENEFITS
Modern life insurance isn’t just about death benefits. Living benefits allow you to access part of your policy’s value if you’re diagnosed with a qualifying critical, chronic, or terminal illness. This can be a financial lifeline that:
- Pays medical bills not covered by health insurance
- Covers mortgage or utility payments if you can’t work
- Gives you choices about where and how to receive care
