The QAG Difference

Three pillars of protection

Strategic decisions made now give you clarity, leverage, and time. That's the difference between a coverage purchase and a real plan.

💵

Protect Assets

Keep a long-term care event from draining the savings you spent a lifetime building. We use rate-equivalent math, not fear.

👨‍👩‍👧

Protect Family

Spare the people you love from becoming unpaid caregivers — or from making impossible financial decisions on your behalf.

🕊️

Protect Dignity

Choose how and where you receive care, on your terms, with a plan in place long before you ever need it.

The Shift That Changes Everything

It's not an asset problem. It's an income problem.

Long-term care coverage isn't an insurance product you might use someday — it's an income stream that steps in to pay a real retirement expense. Once you see it that way, the right plan becomes obvious.

Run Your Own Numbers

What could long-term care really cost you?

Adjust the assumptions below to estimate your future exposure — then see what it would take to cover it from savings alone.

Your assumptions

Defaults reflect Nevada averages. Change anything that fits your situation.

*Illustrative estimate only — not a quote, prediction, or guarantee. Monthly figure assumes level saving from today until care begins at a 4% assumed annual return, before taxes and fees. Actual long-term care costs, inflation, and returns will vary. Speak with a licensed advisor and your tax professional before making decisions.

Funding the Gap

How do you pay for long-term care in Nevada?

Without a plan, care costs can drain savings fast. These are the main levers Nevada families use to protect assets — and they work best when put in place years before care is needed.

1

Know the Medicaid asset limits

To qualify for Nevada Long-Term Care Medicaid, a single applicant's countable assets generally must stay under $2,000, with a monthly income cap around $2,982. Current 2026 figures — limits change yearly.

2

Protect the healthy spouse

If you're married, the Community Spouse Resource Allowance lets the non-applicant spouse keep up to about $162,660 in assets, plus a home-equity limit near $603,000, without triggering a penalty. Current figures, subject to change.

3

Consider a Partnership policy

A Nevada Long-Term Care Partnership policy offers dollar-for-dollar asset protection: if it pays out, say, $100,000 in benefits, you may keep an extra $100,000 in assets above the standard Medicaid limit.

4

Mind the 5-year look-back

Nevada applies a 5-year (60-month) look-back on asset transfers. Gifting or selling property below market value in that window can create a Medicaid penalty period — which is why timing and planning ahead matter.

Educational information only — current as of 2026 and subject to change. This is not legal, tax, or Medicaid-eligibility advice. Medicaid rules are complex and individual; consult a licensed advisor and a qualified elder-law or tax professional before acting.

About Quantum Advisory Group

What does Quantum Advisory Group do?

We are a Nevada advisory team that helps individuals, retirees, and businesses protect income, health, and legacy through long-term care planning, Medicare guidance, and small group health coverage. Our approach is education-first, never sales pressure.

Who does Quantum Advisory Group work with?

We work with pre-retirees and retirees planning for care and Medicare, and with Nevada business owners covering their teams. If you are weighing one of those decisions, we can help you see it clearly.

Is a consultation free?

Yes. Your first call is a free 15-minute conversation: a clear look at where you stand and the smartest next move, with no pressure and no jargon.

What areas does Quantum Advisory Group serve?

We are based in Las Vegas and serve clients across Nevada. You can meet by phone, video, or in person.

How is insurance used as retirement income planning?

The right insurance strategies can turn a future expense, like long-term care, into a predictable income stream that protects the savings you have built. We use rate-equivalent math, not fear, to show how the pieces fit.

Long-Term Care Planning

How much does long-term care cost in Nevada?

Long-term care costs in Nevada vary widely by the type of care and the region. Recent figures range from roughly $20,800 per year for adult day care to about $73,000 to $85,000 per year for assisted living or in-home care, and $118,000 to over $153,000 per year for a private nursing home room, often above the national average. Las Vegas and Henderson tend to run lower than Reno and Carson City. The calculator on this page lets you adjust these assumptions to your own situation, and we will help you build a plan around the number.

How do you pay for long-term care without draining your savings in Nevada?

Most families use a mix of long-term care or hybrid insurance, personal savings, and careful Medicaid planning. In Nevada, key levers include the Community Spouse Resource Allowance, a state Partnership policy for dollar-for-dollar asset protection, and planning around the 5-year Medicaid look-back. The earlier you plan, the more options you keep.

Does Medicare pay for long-term care?

Medicare generally does not cover extended custodial long-term care. It is designed for short-term skilled care and recovery, not ongoing daily help with things like bathing, dressing, or eating. That gap is what a long-term care strategy is built to fill.

What is an asset-based or hybrid long-term care plan?

A hybrid plan combines long-term care benefits with life insurance or an annuity, so the money is not use it or lose it. If you never need care, the value can pass to your family as a death benefit.

Can I get long-term care coverage if I have health issues?

Sometimes yes. Options vary by your health and the type of plan, and asset-based or annuity-based approaches can have different qualification rules than traditional coverage. It is worth a conversation before assuming you do not qualify.

When is the right age to plan for long-term care?

Many people start in their 50s or early 60s, while coverage is typically easier to qualify for and more affordable. Planning earlier gives you more options, but it is worth reviewing at any age.

Medicare 2026

When can I enroll in Medicare?

Most people first enroll during the seven-month window around their 65th birthday. There are also annual periods to change plans and special enrollment periods after certain life events. We will help you find the window that applies to you.

What is the difference between Medicare Advantage and a Medicare Supplement?

A Medicare Supplement (Medigap) works alongside Original Medicare to help cover out-of-pocket costs, while Medicare Advantage (Part C) bundles your coverage through a private plan, often with extra benefits. The right fit depends on your doctors, prescriptions, and budget.

Does Medicare cover everything?

No. Original Medicare does not cover most long-term care, and out-of-pocket costs can add up, which is why drug coverage, supplements, or Advantage plans matter. For 2026 there is a new $2,100 annual out-of-pocket cap on Part D prescription costs.

Do I have to pay for Medicare?

Most people pay nothing for Part A if you or your spouse worked and paid Medicare taxes for at least 10 years. Part B is where the real costs live: in 2026 the standard Part B premium is $202.90 per month — you pay it even on a Medicare Advantage plan — plus a $283 annual deductible before Part B starts paying for outpatient care. If you are hospitalized, the Part A deductible is $1,736 per benefit period, which covers your first 60 days (days 61–90 run $434 per day). On the drug side, 2026 brings a $2,100 cap on your Part D out-of-pocket costs. Higher earners pay more through IRMAA surcharges, and many people qualify for Extra Help or a Medicare Savings Program that can lower or erase these costs — we screen every client at no charge.

What will Medicare cost me in 2026?

Here are the 2026 figures clients ask about most: Part B premium $202.90 per month (standard), Part B annual deductible $283, and Part A hospital deductible $1,736 per benefit period (covers days 1–60; days 61–90 run $434 per day, and skilled nursing runs $217 per day for days 21–100). Your Part D prescription out-of-pocket costs are capped at $2,100 for the year. Two pieces of good news: the average Part D plan premium dropped to about $34.50 per month and the average Medicare Advantage premium dropped to about $14.00 per month. Higher earners pay more through IRMAA. These figures reflect 2026 CMS-published rates and are subject to change.

Can I change my Medicare plan after I enroll?

Yes. There are annual enrollment periods each year, and certain situations qualify for special enrollment, when you can switch plans. Reviewing your coverage every year helps make sure it still fits.

Small Group Health

How much does small business health insurance cost in Las Vegas?

Cost depends on your group size, the plan design you choose, and how the plan is funded. Group purchasing power often brings premiums down versus individual coverage, and qualifying small businesses may be eligible for tax credits. We will build a quote around your team.

What size business can get group health coverage in Nevada?

Many group plans are available for businesses with as few as a handful of employees. Eligibility and plan options vary, so the best first step is a quick review of your headcount and goals.

Can I switch benefits brokers in the middle of the year?

Yes. You can change your broker of record at any time without changing your plan or coverage. It is a simple form, and we can review your current setup before you decide.

What is a level-funded health plan?

A level-funded plan blends features of fully insured and self-funded coverage: you pay a steady monthly amount, and if claims come in lower than expected, your business may receive a refund. It can give smaller employers more cost transparency.

When should I start looking at my group health renewal?

Ideally 60 to 90 days before your renewal date, so there is time to compare options and avoid an automatic rate increase. The earlier we start, the more leverage you have.
