Listen "Guest interview: Mike Simenstad with NGL - How LTC plans and planning has evolved"
Episode Synopsis
This week, I interviewed Mike Simenstad, an LTC veteran with 34 years of experience working for several LTC carriers and distributors. He currently works for National Guardian Life (NGL), a traditonal LTC company across the United States. Mike, and others in his role help me and other LTC specialists to be able to work smarter for our clients. We all work together as a team to find the best solution for each family. Mike answers questions about tools/resources consumers use to research and why that can get confusing. We discuss actions people are taking today to plan, and we discuss how the traditional LTC industry has evolved and gotten much healthier over the last 50 years.
