The Hindu Business Line has carried news that Kerala will be the state which will offer health insurance even to those who are above the poverty line.
Is this that we have started diluting the scheme which has been developed by the Government of India for those who are coming under BPL.
The General Insurance Officers All India Association (GIOAIA), Kerala unit, has appealed to the government to implement the comprehensive health insurance scheme through one of the public sector general insurance companies only. Hailing the Kerala Budget proposal to introduce the scheme, which is based on the health insurance programme of the Union Government for below poverty line (BPL) families, P.P. Mohanan, Kerala State General Secretary of the association, said that the public sector general insurance companies had vast experience of 36 years in the field. Kerala scheme is open to persons outside the BPL category also, he said.
Let us have open field where PVt and PSU should compete.
