LTCareNav

LTCareNav is a free long-term care planning platform that helps families build personalized care plans, compare costs across all 50 states, and connect with local senior care advisors. It offers tools to assess care needs, calculate costs, and explore Medicaid and veterans benefits without requiring a credit card. The platform is designed for seniors, families, caregivers, social workers, and employers who need clarity on care options and financial planning.

The business is located at 30799 Pinetree Road, Cleveland, Ohio, 44124, and also uses a PO Box 140 address for correspondence. While the main office is in Cleveland, the platform provides cost data and resources for every state in the US, allowing users to find local support regardless of where they live.

LTCareNav was founded by Lindsay Friedman, a Certified Senior Advisor and former Certified Nursing Assistant who began working in senior care as a CNA in 1998. She started the company after becoming a full-time family caregiver herself, aiming to provide a calmer and more transparent way to plan for long-term care.

The platform offers a free 60-second assessment and a suite of fourteen planning tools, including a Care Assessment, Health & Cognitive Trajectory tracker, and a Caregiver Assessment. Users can also access a Long-Term Care Cost Calculator and a Caregiver Compensation tool to understand the financial value of their caregiving efforts.

Families can enter a Care Bloom giveaway to win a free Care Bloom System kit and 12 months of subscription, with two winners selected every 250 entries. Additionally, the Respite Care Giveaway offers free respite care to 20 families, also selected every 250 entries, helping caregivers rest and recharge.

The platform provides a comprehensive Medicaid Guide and a Medicare Guide to help users understand coverage gaps and eligibility. It also includes a Veterans Guide to explore veterans benefits for long-term care, ensuring families can access all available government resources.

LTCareNav connects families with local, no-cost senior care advisors and matches them with providers based on specific care needs and location. The matching process ensures that no one can pay to be shown first, and users see exactly who they are connecting with before any contact is made.

The platform is built to be HIPAA compliant and uses industry-standard encryption to protect personal health and financial information both in transit and at rest. All data is encrypted, and the company never shares personal information with third parties without explicit user consent.

The business operates without hidden fees for families, and users can update their information and rerun their long-term care plan once a month at no cost. Providers pay a flat fee for access to the software, while professionals pay to use the planning tools, ensuring a fair model for all users.

The platform is designed specifically for families, seniors, and caregivers, but also caters to social workers, discharge planners, and employers looking for caregiver support services. It aims to reduce the guessing involved in care planning by providing clear, actionable information rather than just collecting data.

LTCareNav differentiates itself by starting with clarity instead of immediate calls from providers, offering a secure platform for care coordination. It helps users understand their situation through assessments before connecting them with professionals, avoiding the mystery calls common on other senior care sites.

The platform includes a Caregiver Compensation tool that helps families determine what their caregiving is worth, alongside a Care Costs by State feature that displays median costs for various care types across the US.

The platform provides a Legal Readiness Quiz to help families prepare for power of attorney and advance directives, as well as a Care Affordability Calculator to estimate financial readiness for long-term care needs.
