Next round of 2013 and 2010 in-force rate action notifications to take place in late December

The 2013 in-force rate action includes John Hancock LTCI
individual policies originally issued in Maine, Montana, Oklahoma, and Washington state.

Please note:
Maine requires that policyholders affected by this increase must be notified 90 days prior to the effective date, resulting in effective dates beginning no earlier than April 1, 2015.

 

Fortis policies or policies impacted by the 2010 in-force rate
action are not included in this round. However, we will continue to
notify those impacted policies and policyholders from previously
announced rounds, as applicable.
