Yes, there is. Buyers can get tax benefits from buying long term care plans

Benefits received from a tax-qualified LTCi policy that was purchased by an individual are non-taxable and therefore excluded from Adjusted Gross Income.

I suggest you opt for Bharti AXA’s Term Insurance. The period of the insurance ranges from 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 years.You can choose an appropriate term for your investment and get tax benefits for the entire period. A Term Insurance for a Crore with Bharti AXA, can save you about 30 thousand as tax.

 

You are eligible to receive tax advantages when you purchase a long term care insurance policy. Benefits received under a qualified long term care planning policy are federal-income-tax-free because they are considered reimbursements for medical expenses.
