Excellent Response to Swasthya Ratna Policy
GJEPC’s Group Mediclaim scheme to provide Group
Mediclaim insurance benefit to the work force of Gems and
Jewellery Industry & their family members has received an
excellent response. The Primary objective of launching this
scheme is to improve access of identified workers and their
families to quality medical care for treatment of diseases
involving hospitalization through an identified network of
health care providers.
GJEPC has created a flexible scheme with different options
related to family size, nature of benefits etc. The premiums
are very affordable and GJEPC will contribute 25% of
the amount and the remaining 75% will be borne by the
participating member company. The scheme has been
simultaneously launched in Maharashtra, Gujarat, Delhi,
Kolkata, Chennai and other clusters of the G & J industry and
is running very successfully. Initially the scheme had only 2
sum insured options of Rs. 50,000 & Rs. 1,00,000. However
after a couple of months GJEPC received feedback from
members to introduce higher sum assured options and the
same was introduced.
Council has created a helpdesk in the head office with a
dedicated mobile number: 98339 - 58730 as well as an email
ID:
where GJEPC members seek
necessary details. They can also avail the scheme by logging
on to GJEPC website where all the scheme related details
are mentioned, members can directly enrol themselves by
filling out the online Enrolment Form. The website also has
details for claims procedure, network hospitals, FAQ’s and
claim status.
As the GJEPC’s Swasthya Ratna Health Insurance Scheme
for workers nears the end of its first year, the number of
workers enrolled has crossed 10,000 with additional cover
extended to almost 20,000 dependents. The number of
participating companies is now 123. Participation is higher in
the Mumbai and Gujarat regions, but there are also a number
of companies from cities like Delhi, Jaipur, Bengaluru,
Hyderabad, Ludhiana, Kerala, Kolkata etc.
Till 31st March 2016, 123 companies from 14 different cities
have enrolled for the Swasthya Ratna policy. Highlights of
policy have been captured in the table below:
