So they slowly accumulated her bank accounts, properties, any assets to offset to balance of the assisted living? I’ve heard of this, but didn’t know it was part of a policy per se.

It’s not. The insurance paid a portion of the cost. The rest came from pensions, Social Security and other assets she had accumulated.

She bought the policy with a lump sum of about $100,000. I think it paid about $1,700 a month.
