Objective. To determine the effect of consumers' numeric abilities on the likelihood of owning private long-term care insurance. Data Source. The 2010 wave of the Health and Retirement Study, a nationally representative survey of Americans age 50 and older, was used (n = 12,796). Study Design. Multivariate logistic regression was used to isolate the relationship between numeracy and long-term care insurance ownership. Principal Findings. Each additional question answered correctly on a numeracy scale was associated with a 13 percent increase in the likelihood of holding LTCI, after controlling for predictors of policy demand, education, and cognitive function.
