If an LTC insurance plan is replaced by another, which aspect remains fixed?

Premium costs
Policy holder’s health status
Eligibility criteria
Value of benefits

The correct answer is: Policy holder’s health status

When replacing one long-term care insurance (LTC) plan with another, the policyholder's health status remains fixed. This is essential to understand because health status plays a critical role in determining the cost and terms of insurance coverage. A person's health situation can affect their insurability and the premiums they might be charged. If the individual has existing health issues when switching plans, it could impact their eligibility for the new policy or the rates offered. Unlike premiums, eligibility criteria, and policy benefits, which may change with a new plan, the policyholder's health status is a constant factor that does not change due to the replacement itself. Thus, it is the one aspect that is inherently tied to the individual and remains unchanged regardless of the plan they choose.
