Under the immense pressure of today’s world, UHNW families are increasingly expanding their geographic footprints in search of havens to preserve their wealth and well-being. For family offices, this shift means that modern wealth management requires a broader scope of services beyond just financial matters. While the demands of affluent families will always be significant, one effective way to manage their expectations is by integrating concierge medical memberships to significantly enhance support for clients.
Shifting trends in today’s UHNW lifestyle
Not confined by geography, today’s UHNW families are increasingly leading global lifestyles. It’s not uncommon for them to attend a business meeting in New York City and then jet off to celebrate a weekend with loved ones in the Bahamas. Of course, such globe-trotting requires great stamina and vitality, which is why many UHNWIs express a keen interest in extending their lifespan.
“Many UHNW families now see health and longevity as key investment opportunities. We offer them exclusive access to the latest advancements in healthcare technologies, enabling them to achieve optimal well-being for themselves and their loved ones.” – Patrick Gruhn – Co-Founder – Veltracon Medical.
A New York Times article cited a research study showing why wealthy people live healthier and longer. The study found that the longer lifespans of the wealthy were largely due to their superior quality of health. In other words, even in what is considered old age, they still engaged in activity and didn’t suffer from chronic ailments. It therefore, seems fitting for family offices serving families spread across the globe or living in remote locations to invest in the health of their clients. Below is a suggestion for a comprehensive medical strategy that addresses critical health needs, promotes vitality, and even dares to extend the lifespans of family office clientele.
Emergency strategy
During combat, any experienced soldier will tell you that the first hour after sustaining a critical injury is the most crucial. Immediate emergency response can mean the difference between life and death. Since UHNW families lead global lifestyles, medical emergencies can arise anywhere. Whether it’s an urgent cardiac issue in Geneva or an accident in the Maldives, having medical experts on speed dial 24/7 makes a significant difference.
Incorporating such a service within a family office not only provides peace of mind but also reinforces its commitment to the well-being of its clients. A prime example is Veltracon Medical’s Emergency Membership, which offers worldwide protection through its proprietary “Rescue Me” app. The app allows clients to quickly access ambulance services or medical evacuations from anywhere in the world, in their preferred language and time zone.
Holistic strategy
Much like a supercar enthusiast who won’t wait for a breakdown but instead proactively invests in precision engineering and ongoing fine-tuning to keep their prized vehicles in peak condition, UHNWIs and their families require more than just 24/7 emergency services to truly enjoy life to the fullest. A well-rounded healthcare strategy for UHNWIs should encompass regular comprehensive screenings and personalised wellness programs aimed at maximising both physical and cognitive well-being.
Rather than just responding to emergencies, introducing family office clients to a global network of leading doctors, scientists, and holistic practitioners can significantly benefit their health and vitality. Veltracon Medical’s Holistic Membership offers exclusive access to this network of medical professionals, providing services that range from routine check-ups to specialised treatments, no matter their location.
Longevity strategy
Bryan Johnson’s ambition to achieve immortality might sound far-fetched. But, there’s something genuinely inspiring about wanting to live a long, healthy life—especially if it means keeping up with your grandkids on a hiking trip or shooting hoops with them on a basketball court. As the number of people reaching 100 continues to rise worldwide, the longevity treatments that seem extreme today may become mainstream in the future.
The pursuit of health longevity isn’t just about adding more years to life; it’s about ensuring those years are filled with vitality and free from unnecessary aches, allowing families to enjoy every moment to the fullest. For family offices looking to go the extra mile, Veltracon Medical offers an exclusive Longevity Membership. The program grants members access to cutting-edge advancements in precision medicine. Key features include early detection screenings and customised health strategies, complete with regular consultations from specialists aimed at enhancing vitality and well-being. Members also benefit from the latest innovations in areas such as stem cell treatments, molecular medicine, biohacking, wearables, and top-tier medical diagnostics.
Conclusion
In an era of increasing uncertainty, UHNW families face growing pressures to safeguard their health and well-being while maintaining their global lifestyles. Family offices must evolve beyond traditional financial management to offer comprehensive support that enhances their clients’ longevity and quality of life.
Concierge medical solutions, such as Veltracon Medical’s three-tier approach—emergency care, holistic wellness, and longevity strategies—provide a tailored framework to mitigate health risks and optimise well-being. By integrating such specialised services, family offices can position themselves as indispensable partners, ensuring their clients not only preserve their wealth but also enjoy a healthier, more fulfilling life.
