Where: United Healthcare, Cary NC
On July 8, 2011, Senate Bill 1193 was signed by Governor Bev Perdue which implemented the Long Term Care Partnership Program (LTCP). As a result, several new agent requirements to market and sell NC LTC Partnership policies were issued. In an effort to provide agents with all NC LTC Partnership resources, Capitol Financial Solutions (CFS), LTC Connection and TAHU have teamed together to aid producers in completing these additional requirements.
