Health and fitness is the key to a long, active and enjoyable life. We should remember that a healthy mind resides only in a healthy body. A healthy and fit person is capable of living the life to the fullest, without any major medical or physical issues. Being healthy is not only related to the physical well-being of a person, it also involves the mental stability or the internal peace of a person.

A hectic schedule filled with work commitments and family responsibilities makes difficult for many to sustain a healthy life. Given the risk factors galore, the assessment of heart health should start early in today’s life. And with the ‘World Heart Day,’ just around the corner, you can make it a day of reckoning, and a day, which marks a change in your lifestyle. Regular screening and remedial actions thereafter is the only way to keep the heart up and going. In addition, having a heart care insurance plan in place allows you to manage heart care expenses.

When it comes to cardiac care, most health insurances fall short of covering our needs, as the cost of treating a heart illness often leaves our pockets lighter.  This is the main reason behind why life insurance companies coming out with special cardiac care schemes. Aviva Life Insurance have conceptualized – ‘Aviva Heart Care’ – to help people achieve their healthy heart goals, and encourage them to make health a priority for themselves and their spouses.

Commenting on the need to protect ones’ heart, Ms. Anjali Malhotra, Chief Customer, Marketing and Digital Officer at Aviva Life Insurance, said, “Heart disease is getting younger by the day in India and striking at unlikely early ages. The incidence of cardio-vascular disease in India has gone up, with 10% of all patients with heart disease being under the age of 40.While we have seen a growing acceptance towards insurance products, there is still limited awareness around the various heart plans available, the lack of which can results in a huge dent on the pocket. We at Aviva, are focused on bridging the gap by spreading awareness and are committed to help people lead a healthy life. Aviva Heart Care is one such perfect option to secure you against the odds, allowing you to take the first step to a relatively stress-free life.”

 

Aviva Heart Care plan provides coverage against 19 mild, moderate, and severe cardiovascular conditions, and procedures and allows lump-sum pay-out irrespective of the cost of treatment. The most attractive feature of this plan is that it comes with the option to cover 2 hearts (you and your spouse) at just a small incremental increase in the premium. The plan allows multiple claims up to the amount of Sum Assured opted by you. The policy also has options to restore policy benefits once the basic sum assured is exhausted for severe category conditions…

Leading a healthy lifestyle seems to be quite a task these days. A hectic schedule filled with work commitments and family responsibilities can make taking time out for oneself demanding. And our food habits and choices are not helping the case either. While many of us have taken some steps towards staying healthy, it is important to protect your heart. This World Heart Day, not just protect your heart, but also make a conscious step to protect the heart of your loved ones with Aviva Heart Care.
