Trust model of Ayushman Bharat may Cost Government more in long term

Posted by - ICICI Lombard, GIC Ltd.
November 23 2018

For the last 18 years, the insurance industry has been recording 17 percent growth overall. While health and motor continue to be the leading drivers, sectors such as corporates and crops have witnessed a steady rise.
The introduction of the Ayushman Bharat scheme, launched by Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi will be a game changer for the people it serves, but its trust model could also prove to be more expensive in the long term in comparison to insurance.
M Saraswathy gets in conversation with Bhargav Dasgupta, MD and CEO, ICICI Lombard General Insurance to discuss the changing landscape of the insurance industry, Ayushman Bharat scheme, digitisation in the insurance space and more.

    The Union Budget was a much awaited event post the demonetization drive, a momentous step by any standard. While many were expecting the budget to provide sops to balance the short term impact of the drive, I think the Government has done well to present a prudent balance sheet that focuses on the long term growth prospects of the nation and gives a boost to those areas that form the backbone of the Indian economy. To my mind, the focus on agriculture growth, digitization, infrastructure development and enabling cashless transactions will give the necessary fillip to India’s long term growth engine.
