Keywords: Mutuals, health insurance

Abstract

This exploration is based on a recent interaction1 with Shailabh Kumar, Director and Founder of Pune based Uplift Mutuals. Uplift Mutual has ably demonstrated how a health insurance mutual can successfully address the challenges faced by this segment. What has been highlighted here is based on their experiences in the slums of Pune, Mumbai and tribal areas of Rajasthan and Gujarat. An excellent prototype for the much-desired safety network here in India.
