Long-Term Care
No one knows what the future holds in store. As people age, they may need help with things they once were able to do for themselves. Accidents and injuries mean younger people need long-term care services, too.
Long-term care doesn’t mean you have to go to a nursing home. Services are available in a variety of settings:
- Home
- Community
- Assisted Living Facility
- Nursing Home
A long-term care insurance policy may be an important component of your overall plan for retirement.
- Pays a portion of your long-term care expenses
- Helps protect your retirement assets
- Allows you to spend your retirement the way you planned
You could purchase a long-term care insurance policy,and...

- Stay connected to the things that matter most
Medical Transportation
Yes! MASA will be there for you if you become ill or get injured and require local transportation by ground ambulance or helicopter or if you need to be transferred by air ambulance to an upgraded medical facility. Your MASA plan will also get you specialized medical care that is not available locally.
Yes! If you get sick or injured and require hospitalization, MASA can get you back home for treatment and recuperation. And if you require an air ambulance, MASA will even send a relative or friend with you so you do not have to be alone. Plus your plan can return a stranded vehicle back to your home by a bonded driver.
Your attending physician and MASA’s medical director determine when and where you will be flown. MASA takes care of all the details and the transportation.
If you are in the U.S., call 911 first as you would normally do. Once you are safe and in stable condition, call MASA and they will take care of everything.
If you are overseas, use the emergency services available in your area and then contact MASA.
MASA will cover the air waybill for returning the member’s remains to the airport nearest the member’s permanent address.
Your benefits start immediately once we receive your completed application.
Medicare Solutions
Every year, your Medicare supplement insurance policy benefits coordinate with your Medicare benefits to help you meet your eligible health care expenses, depending on the plan you choose. What’s more, you can be sure your benefits won’t decrease.
With your Medicare supplement insurance policy, you alone select all your health care providers to use whenever and wherever you choose. You don’t have to worry about your doctor or hospital leaving a provider network at any time.
Your Medicare supplement insurance policy cannot be cancelled. It will be renewed as long as you pay the premiums on time and make no material misrepresentations.
Whole Life Insurance
Yes! Acceptance is guaranteed for those between age 45 and 85.
You cannot be turned down for any health reason. Your acceptance is guaranteed. (Each insured may have a combined maximum of $25,000 coverage of this type from United of Omaha Life Insurance Company.)
There is absolutely no way that your rate can be increased. The affordable rate you start with is the rate you stay with – for life. You’ll never pay any more.
Just fill in the pre-approved application form and mail it in the postage-paid envelope with your payment. You will be billed your premiums and you’ll receive your policy. If you are not 100% satisfied, just return your policy to us within 60 days and your money will be refunded.
You cannot be canceled for any reason as long as your premiums are paid when due.
Disability
Disability insurance provides supplementary income in the event an illness or accident results in a disability. Benefits are usually paid monthly so the insured can maintain a comparable standard of living and pay recurring expenses.
Disability insurance may cover everything from total disability to rehabilitation and even the short period after you recover from your disability.
Hearing
You have 60 day trial period
You will receive up to a 3 year supply of batteries. That's 40 cells per hearing aid.
Accident
Ideally, you'd have both, because your disability coverage may not provide you a lump-sum payment to help you to take care of day-to-day living expenses and still have money for your recovery. Accident coverage can pay a lump-sum benefit in addition to any disability coverage you may have. Also, most disability plans provide a reduced monthly benefit, and many are valid for just a limited time.
Covered losses range from loss of hearing to more serious injuries, such as paralysis and brain damage.
