• Producers who intend to sell, solicit or negotiate long-term care insurance in Nebraska

• Producers who have not yet completed the one-time eight-hour initial training

✅ Does This Course Satisfy the State Requirement?

This course is designed to satisfy Nebraska's one-time initial long-term care training requirement, which Neb. Rev. Stat. 44-4521 sets at no less than eight hours. It does not satisfy the separate four-hour ongoing training that follows every twenty-four months, and it does not satisfy Nebraska's 3-hour ethics requirement. Both are available separately.

✅ Nebraska Continuing Education Requirements

Nebraska producers renew on a two-year cycle. The Department states that twenty-four hours is the maximum number of continuing education hours required for any license type combination, and that every licensee must complete a minimum of 3 hours of ethics in order to renew. Limited lines carry smaller totals.

• Up to 24 hours of continuing education per two-year renewal period, depending on your license type combination
• A minimum of 3 hours of ethics, required of every licensee
• Long-term care producers: a one-time initial training course of no less than 8 hours
• Long-term care producers: an ongoing training course of no less than 4 hours every 24 months thereafter
• Completions are uploaded by the provider; the Department will not accept certificates submitted by licensees
• Providers are allowed 10 days to upload, and renewal eligibility begins 24 hours after the upload posts

How this course helps: This 8-hour course is designed to satisfy Nebraska's one-time initial long-term care training requirement in full, and the same 8 hours count toward your renewal total — up to 24 hours depending on your license type combination. It does not cover the 3-hour ethics requirement, and it does not replace the 4-hour ongoing long-term care training due every 24 months thereafter.

✅ When Do Nebraska Licensees Renew?

Nebraska producer licenses run on a two-year cycle. The renewal window opens 90 days before your expiration date, but it opens only after your education requirements have been met. Because the Department makes you eligible 24 hours after your completion is uploaded, and providers are allowed up to 10 days to upload, finishing your continuing education well before the deadline is the difference between renewing comfortably and renewing in a hurry. Check your own license record for your exact expiration date.

✅ How to Renew Your Nebraska License

1. Confirm your license type and expiration date — Sign in to your Nebraska Department of Insurance record and check your license type combination, status, expiration date and the hours already on file.
2. Complete the initial long-term care training — Finish this 8-hour course before you sell, solicit or negotiate long-term care insurance. Nebraska treats it as a one-time requirement.
3. Complete your remaining hours and your ethics — Finish the balance of your renewal total, including the minimum 3 hours of ethics that every licensee must have.
4. Allow time for the upload to post — 1st Choice CE uploads your completion for you. Providers have up to 10 days, and eligibility begins 24 hours after the upload posts.
5. Renew through the Department — Once your education is on file, the renewal window opens 90 days before expiration. Complete the renewal and pay the fee shown on your renewal notice.
6. Verify the result — Save your receipt and confirm your license record shows an active status with the updated expiration date.

✅ What You Will Learn

• Describe the settings of care long-term care insurance pays for and how they differ in cost
• Apply activities-of-daily-living and cognitive impairment benefit triggers correctly
• Explain how the Partnership asset disregard interacts with Medicaid eligibility and estate recovery
• Compare policy designs, benefit periods, elimination periods and inflation protection options
• Apply the tax treatment of qualified long-term care contracts
• Recognize suitability limits and the signs of elder abuse or financial exploitation

✅ Course Content Overview

Hour 1: What long-term care actually is: the settings of care from home care through assisted living to skilled nursing, who needs care and for how long, current cost of care, and why health insurance and Medicare do not fill this gap.

Hour 2: Medicare, Medicaid and personal resources compared: what Medicare's skilled nursing benefit really covers, Medicaid eligibility rules including asset and income limits, and what families actually pay out of pocket.

Hour 3: The Partnership program: how a qualified Partnership policy earns dollar-for-dollar asset disregard, reciprocity between participating states, estate recovery and how the disregard survives it, and the disclosure a Partnership policy must carry.

Hour 4: Benefit triggers and eligibility for benefits: the activities of daily living, cognitive impairment standards, licensed health care practitioner certification, the plan of care, and how a claim is actually opened and substantiated.

Hour 5: Policy design: daily and monthly benefit amounts, benefit periods and pools of money, elimination periods, home care and facility benefits, care coordination, and shared and joint policy structures.

Hour 6: Inflation protection: compound, simple and guaranteed purchase options, why inflation protection is required for Partnership qualification, and what the choice actually costs a client over a twenty-year horizon.

Hour 7: Tax treatment and funding alternatives: qualified long-term care contracts, deductibility limits, benefit taxation, hybrid life and annuity designs with long-term care riders, and the tradeoffs each alternative carries.

Hour 8: Suitability, ethics and consumer protection: assessing whether coverage fits a client's assets and income, the required suitability worksheet, replacement standards, rate increase history and disclosure, and recognizing and reporting elder abuse and financial exploitation.
