Yes. The Genworth is about 12% more expensive, but my research shows that NYL's weakness is in their home care benefit. They will only pay 50% for 365 day max for uncertified homecare providers. For homemaker services, they only pay one day per week. Genworth pays up to the home care benefit maximum for both these services. When that is taken into consideration, the extra cost for Genworth seems a value. I hope my applicant feels that way. I have pointed that out to him, and is is gong to get back with me.
Thanks,

NYL has never increased rates on their policyholders, thats a biggie IMO... you can do 100% home care coverage, but not for an uncertified caregiver (I'm pretty sure on that).
The only downside to NYL imo, is the lack of a limited pay policy. I really like the CPI-options inflation rider too...
Which of their CPI options do you like?
The ones where the premium goes up each year or the ones where the premium does not go up each year.
