Nation's Top Long-Term Care Insurance Agents Announced

The nation's top long-term care insurance agents for 2010 were announced today by the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance (AALTCI). The Ninth Annual Long-Term Care Sales Achievement Awards recognizes producers based on sales across multiple categories.

"In any given year, some 40,000 insurance and financial professionals market long-term care insurance protection nationally," explains Jesse Slome, AALTCI's organization's executive director. "Those who are the most successful and committed to protecting the lives and financial well-being of consumers are most deserving of this recognition."

The industry awards recognize top producers for sales in categories including individual placed premium, multilife long-term care insurance premium as well as LTC hybrid products. The complete listing of award recipients is published in the Association's Long-Term Care Insurance Sourcebook http://www.aaltci.org.
