GuideStone Financial Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention will be using a long term care insurance program from LTC Financial Partners.
GuideStone, Dallas, sells benefits programs to Southern Baptist churches and other evangelical churches, ministries and institutions.
LTC Financial, Kirkland, Wash., will be offering LTC insurance and LTC education programs from MetLife Inc., New York, to staff members at the organizations GuideStone serves.
More than 100,000 ministers, church employees and dependents will be eligible to buy LTC insurance coverage through the program, and church ministers and employees who are actively at work may qualify for a simplified underwriting process, GuideStone says.
