Company Summary

Every day we provide thousands of low-income Pakistanis enrolled in our NAYA JEEVAN health plan with affordable access to quality healthcare through micro insurance, in an ecosystem of socioeconomic empowerment. We do this because medical catastrophes trigger financial ruin for low-income families. Often their life-savings are wiped out, their children pulled out of school and condemned to child labor, perpetuating a vicious cycle of poverty.
