AMHERST, N.Y. - eTradeWire -- Les Robinson, CEP®, CLTC®, CRPC®, a nationally recognized speaker, author, and educator with more than 30 years of experience in long-term care, retirement, and estate planning, will join industry leaders at Protectors Vegas 2026 for a panel discussion examining the future of long-term care (LTC) services and funding.

The session, "Next Steps – The Role of LTC for Future Generations," will take place Monday, November 9, from 12:25 to 1:00 p.m. in Las Vegas.

As the population ages and the cost of extended care continues to challenge families, the need for practical, coordinated planning has never been greater. Nearly 70% of people turning 65 today are projected to need some form of long-term care during their remaining years. Meanwhile, many Americans misunderstand Medicare's limitations and may underestimate the financial consequences of an extended care event.

The panel will explore how demographic shifts, economic uncertainty, and changing public policies are reshaping the LTC landscape. Industry leaders representing carriers, brokerage, and advisory services will discuss practical approaches to funding care, including the "Big 5" private and alternative funding strategies: long-term care insurance, annuities, life settlements, reverse mortgages, and the VA Aid & Attendance benefit, where applicable.

Robinson brings extensive experience educating financial professionals, insurance advisors, and the public on the importance of integrating long-term care considerations into retirement, estate, tax, and wealth-preservation strategies. He is the author of Protecting Your Money from Medicaid and Nursing Homes and the developer of the LesLTC Process℠.

"Planning for long-term care is about more than paying for services," Robinson emphasizes. "It is about helping individuals and families protect their retirement income, preserve their assets, maintain greater control over their care, and reduce the burden on the next generation."
