The Government has so far received 131 claims under the Rs 50 lakh Covid-19 insurance scheme for healthcare providers and payments have already been made in 20 cases.
“Under the scheme, we have received 131 claims. The claims are a bit slow in coming as the families are initially in a state of shock and therefore, it takes time to sign and fill up the necessary paperwork.
“Out of these 131 claims, in 20 cases, payments have already been made.
In Sixty-four cases, payment has been processed and would be made in the coming few days while 47 cases are with different State Governments,” he said. The maximum number of cases are in Maharashtra, Delhi and Telangana, Bhushan said.
