IPPB Premium Aarogya Savings Account

IPPB Premium Aarogya Savings Account: India Post Payment Bank has recently made some changes in its important services, understanding the need of the customers. Yes, till some time ago, India Post Payment Bank used to provide the benefit of Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Scheme of Saving Bank, in which the customer got life insurance and accident insurance up to 2 lakhs. However, with time this scheme started losing its utility. People were using this account only as a savings account. Neither full health cover nor life security was available in it.

In such a situation, SBPRM scheme was discontinued in India Post Payment Bank and now Premium Arogya Saving Account has been launched in its place. This account will be operated by linking with India’s trusted health insurance company NIVA BUPA. Now on opening an account in India Post Payment Bank, customers will not only get the benefit of savings bank but health insurance will also be provided keeping in mind the health need. Premium Arogya Savings Account is not only a savings account but will also provide health insurance facility to crores of people of the country.

As we all know, even today crores of people of the country are deprived of adequate health insurance. There is a fear of losing their life savings on hospitalization. Especially these people living in rural and small towns do not have adequate knowledge of banking and neither the facility to take health insurance. In such a situation, now through the post office, the government will provide not only savings bank accounts but also the benefit of health insurance.

India Post Payment Bank’s Premium Arogya Savings Account Scheme is an integrated solution of banking and health security in which the customer gets health insurance cover of 1 lakh to 5 lakh on opening the account. Customers are not only able to increase the habit of saving but also get financial support in case of illness and emergency. On opening this account, the customer will get banking facilities as well as health insurance that too with affordable premium and very simple process.

The main objective of this important change is to ensure the availability of health insurance in every village. Also, the objective of this scheme is to provide relief in treatment to economically weaker families and to bring banking and insurance on a common platform. Premium Arogya Savings Account is not an account but a complete financial solution in which savings, health and future facilities will be made available to the customers.
