It’s never too early to prepare for the uncertainties of the future. In fact, you should’ve started yesterday, in case anything happens today. But no matter when you’re starting (or when you started), you can still catch up by making small changes in your current lifestyle. By making these changes now, you’ll be better physically, mentally, and financially ready in the long run, equipped to face whatever life throws your way.
Knowing how hard it is to prepare for life’s uncertainties, AIA Philippines, the country’s premier life insurance company, recently introduced Total Health Solution to help Filipinos be ready for whatever life curveballs that may come. Total Health Solution is its ecosystem accessible through My AIA, AIA Philippines’ proprietary single touchpoint platform that can help Filipinos live better so they are able to maintain a healthy lifestyle, protect better so they have peace of mind that they are prepared for life’s uncertainties, and get better, giving them access to healthcare needs should they find themselves unwell.
Here are five ways you can be ready, and how it can be easier with the help of Total Health Solution:
1. Start those healthy habits NOW. As COVID continues to be a threat, the best way to be prepared is by keeping yourself healthy so even if you get exposed, your body is in the best position to fight off the virus.
Your busy schedule may make it challenging for you to live healthily. However, with a mentor by your side rewarding you for those small wins, it might just get a bit more encouraging. With AIA Vitality linked to Total Health Solution, you can develop healthy habits by receiving rewards for achieving specific step goals, sleeping at least seven hours, and eating green leafy vegetables.
2. Be financially ready for medical expenses. No one knows when they will require hospitalization. By preparing your pocket for possible medical expenses, you are able to protect your savings from being depleted in case you do find yourself sick.
AIA Philippines’ medical benefit insurance products can help you when the time comes. And with Total Health Solution giving you access to your policy details, you know how much coverage you have in just a few taps.
3. Get ready for critical illness. It’s one thing to deal with a week-long stay in the hospital, and another when you have to deal with a critical illness that can completely wipe out your savings. Make sure you’re ready for this, especially if your family has a history of these illnesses.
AIA Philippines has a full suite of products that can help you be ready for this situation. And Total Health Solution is your window into the details of your policy–when you need to pay, how much you’re covered, and even how you can claim. While leading a well-balanced lifestyle puts you at lower risk of getting diseases, you never really know what tomorrow may bring so it’s best to be ready for all possible scenarios you might encounter in life.
4. Seek medical attention when you don’t feel well. Most of us ignore small symptoms that we notice in our body until it becomes unbearable and we finally consult a doctor. By then it might be too late.
As soon as you observe symptoms and changes in your body, as soon as you feel that something is amiss, see your doctor immediately. Most illnesses, when dealt with at early stages, are easier to cure. However, scheduling a teleconsult can be tedious, especially these days. With Total Health Solution, reaching out to a doctor is as simple as a few taps on your mobile.
5. Follow through on your medical treatments. There are those who, after the initial consultation with a doctor, is quickly reassured and don’t follow through on their doctor’s advice.
Scheduling lab procedures and even buying medicine can be tedious, especially when you’re feeling under the weather. Total Health Solution can make this easier for you, with access to lab procedure schedules and medicine delivery right at your fingertips.
Preparing for the unexpected can be easy if you start early. However, it can also be a challenge because you won’t feel the benefits of your efforts until much later–when the unexpected finally happens. But with a mentor like Total Health Solution motivating you with perks and benefits to encourage you to live healthy, while at the same time giving you peace of mind that you are ready for anything that might happen, preparing for life’s uncertainties will be so much easier.
The promise to help Filipinos live better began in 2017 and with Total Health Solution, AIA Philippines has come full circle. “This is one of the many innovative solutions we have developed to take care of our customers as part of our transition to AIA Philippines. Through Total Health Solution providing the means for us to be with our customers every step of the way, we bring to life our purpose of helping more Filipinos live Healthier, Longer, Better Lives,” said Kelvin Ang, AIA Philippines Chief Executive Officer.
