Health insurance for artisans
Madurai, Jan 24
The Ministry of Textiles has launched the Rajiv
Gandhi Artisans Health Insurance Scheme, aimed at
providing a comprehensive health insurance package for
handicraft artisans, in association with ICICI Lombard
General Insurance. Under the scheme, the craft persons
and their families will get reimbursement of medical
expenses subject to an annual limit of Rs 15,000 per
family, consisting of the artisan, spouse and two children
and parents. A sum of Rs 1 lakh for personal disability or
death due to accident is also available. Artisans below the
age of 80 can benefit under the scheme. They need to
hold a valid identity card issued by the Office of the
Development Commissioner (Handicrafts). - Our
