When it comes to safeguarding personal health and future, many Filipinos are still considered vulnerable.
Poor nutrition is a major contributor to a range of chronic diseases and among the most common diseases in the country are diabetes, heart disease, and anemia. Recent data also show the Philippines is experiencing a surge in obesity rates and diet-related deaths. The National Nutrition Survey revealed that the prevalence of overweight and obese adults has increased significantly over the past decade. These highlight the urgent need for improved nutrition and healthcare strategies to address this growing epidemic.
While good nutrition is the cornerstone of a healthy lifestyle, it’s only part of the equation. To fully safeguard one’s health, financial preparation is essential. Just as nutritious food fuels and protects the body, having a health fund allows one access to the appropriate medical care when needed, creating a well-rounded approach to one’s overall wellbeing.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the poorest Filipinos shell out 75% of out-of-pocket health spending while the richest spend 58% for medicine. Health insurance not only provides financial protection, but also facilitates timely access to healthcare services. With the right insurance plan, individuals can receive regular check-ups and treatments that can prevent or manage chronic diseases effectively.
Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc. (Sun Life Grepa) is committed to helping Filipinos achieve this balance. By offering a range of health insurance plans tailored to meet diverse needs, the company aims to support individuals in their journey towards better health and financial security.
For those who want lifetime health coverage, the company offers Sun Grepa Fit and Well, a comprehensive life and health protection that provides financial benefits upon early or late diagnosis of any of the 114 covered critical conditions. There are also specialized health protection plans such as the Sun Grepa Senior Care for people in their golden years, Sun Grepa Cancer Care for those battling cancer, and Sun Grepa ICU Protect which pays benefits in case of ICU confinement.
“We at Sun Life Grepa are continuously looking for innovative financial solutions to address emerging health issues and concerns, giving the uninsured more ways to protect themselves and their future, not just through good nutrition, but also through affordable health coverage and maximum health protection,” said Richard S. Lim, president of Sun Life Grepa.
