TRANSAMERICA AND THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION®
A Holistic Approach
At Transamerica, we're revolutionizing retirement and benefits planning by taking an integrated approach that accounts for both financial and physical well-being.
Working with the most respected leaders in workplace wellness, we want to help people live well today and prepare for a secure tomorrow.
How Health Impacts Financial Well-being
$424,635 is the average amount a healthy 65-year old couple retiring today can expect to pay for healthcare.1
In 2020, the average annual cost for an employee buying family healthcare coverage was over $5,500 and likely to increase every year.2
Why heart health matters
Cardiovascular disease, which will affect nearly 50% of all adults in America at some point in their lives,3 is the most expensive disease.4
With the right planning 80% of these conditions are preventable.5
Why We Support the American Heart Association®
Like the American Heart Association, Transamerica is a champion for stronger, healthier lives. And we believe physical and financial health go hand-in-hand. That’s why we’re a proud national supporter of the American Heart Association’s Healthy for GoodTM Be Well platform, which helps people create positive, lasting change in their health and well-being one step at a time.
We're sharing articles developed by the American Heart Association for Transamerica alongside other free resources from the American Heart Association to help you live your best life possible, for as long as possible.
