Article Abstract:

The federal government must clarify the tax status of living benefits and long-term care insurance policies to spur purchases by younger consumers. Consumer protection issues and industry standards should be regulated by individual states. The number and diversity of bills currently being debated in Congress suggests this issue will not be settled for some time.
