Ongoing Long-Term Care Partnership Training
Federal law requires insurance companies
offering long-term care insurance to ensure their agents have
received adequate training in long-term care insurance.
Agents who have met their 8-hour initial long-term care partnership
training must complete 4 hours of ongoing training 24 months from
the date of their initial 8-hour training. This federal requirement on insurers is regulated and monitored in Florida by the
Office of Insurance Regulation
(Office). The Office continues to consider amending its
rule
to provide additional information about long-term care training
requirements in Florida. In the interim, we, at the Department of Financial
Services, have attempted to assist agents by reviewing and approving
courses that have been submitted to meet both the federal
requirement and the agent's continuing education requirement.
To find these:
- Go to the
Florida course search engine.
