A health insurance scheme had been launched under the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) to provide free medical treatment.
According to the official website of the programs, the following are the salient features of the BISP’s targeted Health Insurance:
- The insured would be covered for hospitalization resulting from illness or injury with an annual maximum of Rs. 25,000 per family.
- Normal deliveries and hospitalizations due to complicated deliveries and C-Sections.
- Diagnostic tests/procedures conducted during hospitalization would be covered.
- The beneficiary family members belonging to any age group will be covered.
- The scheme would provide opportunity to the insured to get services from any enlisted hospital; this would be a ‘floating’ benefit - a family would be covered under one premium.
- Health insurance would not exclude pre-existing conditions.
Benefit package
1. Full hospitalization
2. Pre-existing diseases and all age groups will be covered
3. Maximum benefit cap Rs.25000/- per family per year.
4. Benazir Health Cards will be issued to enrolled families.
