New Delhi, March 12 (IANS) Future Generali (BIT:GASI) India Insurance Company, one of India’s leading private general insurance players, has announced the findings of #PowHer Survey - an exclusive survey powered by Unomer. The survey focused on gauging the pulse of Indian women when it comes to buying health insurance.
Commenting on the initiative, Anup Rau, Managing Director and CEO, Future Generali India Insurance Company Ltd, said: “At Future Generali, we believe that the key to unleashing the potential of health insurance in India lies in expanding the market by customising solutions to address every conceivable homogeneous group, however small. But, today, we are here to address the largest under-served group in India, which also happens to be India’s largest minority by any measure - and that group is women! At Future Generali, we are here to offer women a product customised to their needs and requirements, a product that promises to be unique in more ways than one, a product designed through deep research and understanding of what women want. This product is designed through rigorous research- by the women, for the women - and we are proud to put it out to the market.”
Towards bridging this gap, Future Generali today also announced the launch of its most comprehensive women-health insurance plan – designed to meet the unique needs of women.
FGII “HEALTH POWHER” aims to address the various needs of women across the different stages of their lives. Some of the critical differentiators of HEALTH POWHER include Enhanced Limits for Female Cancer treatments, Coverage for Puberty and Menopause-related disorders, OPD focus on physical & mental well-being with the reinstatement of mental illness benefits to 200 per cent, Coverage for infertility treatment & Oocyte cryopreservation, Stem Cell Storage, a comprehensive wellness program, Lumpsum benefit for Newborn defect, Nursing care, Senior Care covering bone strengthening injections, joint injections etc., Enhanced maternity benefits with the inclusion of Antenatal cover, and many more.
