As per Co-operation Minister H S Mahadeva Prasad, the government has earmarked Rs 1,010 as premium amount per year per individual. The premium amount for SC/STs is Rs 810 per year per individual. Currently, the scheme is applicable only for rural cooperative societies, where beneficiaries are charged Rs 210 as premium per individual.
Around 800 diseases are covered under the scheme. One can also claim their insurance for consultation and medical diagnosis under the scheme. There are close to 70 lakh members in various urban cooperative societies in the State. The scheme is set to launch Bangalore.
The premium rates for urban cooperative societies are comparatively high as People in urban areas visit hospitals more often than those in rural areas.
The government is in fact going to launch another scheme by the name of Priyadarshini, it will offer financial assistance for setting up new women’s co-operative societies in the State. The government will contribute the share amount for one to become a member, besides providing mandatory financial assistance to operate the societies.
