New Database to track Claim Duplication of Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana

The Life Insurance Council has set up a centralized database for life insurers to check on before processing claims under the Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY). This will ensure that claims of only genuine policyholders are settled. Since the policies are managed by banks, insurers need to verify that the person doesn’t hold multiple policies while processing claims. To initiate a claim, an IT-enabled registry has been set up by the Life Insurance Council through CIBIL. Upon receiving a claim, a bank needs to inform the respective life insurer, which can then access the database by paying a nominal fee of Rs 5.
