Kansas's LTC Partnership program

Kansas has an active LTC Partnership program. The Kansas Partnership for Long-Term Care offers dollar-for-dollar Medicaid asset protection with reciprocity for policyholders moving to/from other Partnership states.

A Partnership-qualified policy lets you keep an extra dollar of assets, protected from Medicaid spend-down, for every dollar your policy pays out in benefits — see the note above for this state's current status. Learn more about how Partnership programs work.

How to compare quotes in Kansas

• Confirm any agent or carrier you talk to is currently licensed to sell in Kansas — the Kansas Department of Insurance can confirm licensing status.
• Ask which products a carrier is actively writing in Kansas today — availability changes state by state and year to year. See carriers we compare.
• If a Partnership-qualified policy matters to you, confirm with the carrier or agent whether a policy is currently certified as Partnership-qualified in Kansas — see this state's Partnership status above.
• Compare traditional and hybrid options side by side — see traditional vs. hybrid coverage.
• Get quotes from more than one carrier; pricing for the same coverage can vary significantly.

Please note: Regulator names, complaint channels, and Partnership-program status can change. Confirm current details with the Kansas Department of Insurance or a licensed agent before making any decision.
