What
is it that you do exactly for a beneficiary? This is a
cashless card. If fallen sick, they can utilize the card for
hospitalization up to Rs 25000/ for the year without a
hassle of arranging cash. Even if they change job, insurance
works. 1st year they are not paid for any major
disease which can have a past history but from next year
even major diseases are covered unless medical tests have
shown them as existing. Accident and death is also covered.
Every worker in the shops, factories, companies, schools,
BMC, buildings need to be covered by the place where they
work. They should be encouraged to make such policies for
their families as well so that their medical needs for the
year is taken care of. They get 10% discount on their family
insurance.
Collaboration Possibilities:
How can you work with corporates,
sponsors, other NGOs, schools, hospitals, Rotaries, govt? We can talk to
them and sensitize them to the needs of the people, area,
nature surrounding them. (Security staffs & other
workers in the society are part of your building, must know
them, their problems, happy moments etc., For example, if
they come after marriage, no body gives them any gifts! If
they have children born, no body knows about it or advise
them or gift them. If they have big children, no body advise
them about probable career they can choose.
Do not use plastics,
big show rooms also need to be told to use cloth bags or
paper bags.
Motivate children & teachers at BMC schools
Inspect daily BMC hospitals and look into their problems
& suggest solutions)
If they want to visit you, what can you show them & how
much time will it take? I have office
at my residence so I can not show them much but can surely
motivate them, suggest new plans, work with them.
Do you have any weekend or evening activities
which families can attend and be sensitized? Not yet
If you can give a talk of 15-20 minutes to a
Rotary Club or Ladies Association,
please state: Be
sensitive to the needs of others surrounding you.
