A move towards a healthy life and secure future for all

Aviva Life Insurance, one of the India’s most trusted private life insurance companies has been an advocate of healthy lifestyle and the need to secure one’s heart against all uncertainties. This World Heart Day, Aviva Life Insurance pledges to be a Heart Hero and build a global community of Heart Heroes to promote healthy living and a secure life with timely investments.

Individuals today and especially millennials are mostly overburdened with work and responsibilities making it difficult for many to sustain a healthy life. Physical inactivity, unhealthy diet, lifestyle choices, consumption of tobacco and most importantly unpreparedness towards risk factors make them vulnerable to life’s uncertainties and more prone to health hazards. According to a report released in 2016 by the World Heart Federation, heart diseases were the leading cause of death claiming 17.9 million lives each year, globally.

Innovation in the field of Medical science has led to higher life expectancy rates across many economies. However, advanced medical treatments and procedures mean greater medical expense; that leaves a bigger dent on the pocket. Savings often are not adequate to cover these expenses and it often leads to selling assets or go in debt to provide for such expenses. To avoid such a situation a comprehensive health insurance or a dedicated heart insurance plan becomes imperative.

With the intent to create awareness around healthy living, Aviva Life Insurance celebrates World Heart Day with its people by making a pledge to healthy living and timely investments for a stress-free mind. It further aims at building a global network of Heart Heroes from across communities, culture and continents to propel individuals embrace a healthy and secured future. Aviva urges its people to make that move which secures one’s family and friends from uncertainties of life. A responsible hero is a careful and intelligent individual who believes in the idea of being fit and staying healthy and takes accountability to protect one and their loved ones from adversities.

Speaking on the occasion Mr. Amit Malik, Chief People, Operations & Customer Services Officer, Aviva Life Insurance said, “Good Health is pivotal for being in a happy state of mind. We at Aviva have always endeavored to keep our internal and external stakeholders in a positive environment. In today’s fast-changing lifestyle, it is indeed a challenge for many to maintain a healthy lifestyle. The consequences of an unfit body are manifold, and unfortunately, affect not just the individual but also one’s family as well.

Aviva through its products, propositions, and initiatives aims at establishing an informed, equipped and secured society. We have curated products and services to enable people to manage medical expenses.
