Dear Apollo Family,
In the year 2000, at Aragonda, my native village, Apollo Hospitals had introduced an
innovative insurance model wherein, an individual had to pay just one rupee a day as
premium for health insurance. This innovation introduced a culture of health insurance
and over the years, numerous States across India have emulated the model and it has
proven to be the genesis of the present day community health insurance schemes prevalent
in our country.
Apollo Munich Health Insurance, our joint venture with Munich Health has been built on
the same strong foundation of insurance and healthcare delivery competencies. This
unparalleled strength has repeatedly attracted laurels from many forums in India and
overseas. Once again, June 2013 has been a month of awards and accolades for our Apollo
Munich Health Insurance.
On June 21, 2013 at Mumbai, Apollo Munich Health Insurance Company triumphed at
