The MoU was signed by CEO, Amana Takaful, Fazal Ghaffoor, and Founder
Chairman, Northern Central Hospital, S P Samy. Senior officials of both
organisations were present.
In 2013 Amăna Takaful, a composite insurer and a pioneer of the
Takaful way of insurance in Sri Lanka launched KruthaGuna a
hospitalisation insurance cover for parents and elders above 55 years.
People of the North will now benefit from a tailor-made solution, Sei
Nandri, which will be exclusively available to them through Northern
Central Hospital in Jaffna.
CEO, Amăna Takaful, Fazal Ghaffoor said, ''We recognise the ever
increasing ageing population of Sri Lanka and the resulting pressure on
the social security net. This aspect will be a challenge for people at
retirement. With today's fast paced society and the varying priorities,
many of us tend to neglect the obligations towards our parents and
elders. Amăna Takaful Sei Nandri provides financial assistance to those
who become helpless when hospitalised."
Founder Chairman, Northern Central Hospital Jaffna, S. P. Samy said,
"We at the Northern Central Hospital provide quality patient care with
compassion and attention to clinical excellence, patient safety and
commitment to assure the best healthcare to all those we serve.
The strategic partnership with Amăna Takaful allows our patients to
benefit further. Sei Nandri which is available to anyone above 55 and
below the age of 73 is a vital cover as it looks after the medical
bills. Home nursing care and ambulance transfer are among other benefits
offered.'' |
