Hi All, There is an interesting calculator on the Americans For Long-Term Security (ALTCS) site at: http://www.ltcweb.org/ See: Calculator - Using your age, gender and state in which you live, the calculator will estimate your potential annual long-term care costs (nursing home and home health care)! They also have a directory to Contact Your Legislator. Try it and let us know if it is functional and up to date, please.... Go to: http://congress.nw.dc.us/altcs/ Try clicking on: Guide to Congress Search Congress by name, state, committee, or leadership directory. I tried clicking on the letter S in the alphabetic list and then highlighted Specter to get his profile, contact info etc. Seems like a decent tool... Is this as useful as it appears? (for advocacy) Best regards ......... murray [log in to unmask]
