bQuest Launches Longevity Framework for Financial Advisors
Denver – November 03, 2026 -- bQuest has launched a Longevity Planning Framework that gives registered investment advisors (RIAs) and wealth management firms a four-step process for bringing aging and care coordination into financial planning, aimed at a gap Mayo Clinic research puts at 12.4 years for Americans.
That figure is the average time Americans spend living with illness or disability. It is the largest healthspan-lifespan gap among the 183 countries studied. bQuest argues that most financial plans model how long a client may live, but far fewer model housing, caregiving and care coordination decisions that can reshape a plan.
