  • Though NACO itself is not directly involved in the scheme in Karnataka, the organisation has initiated a process of talking to the IRDA and major insurance players at the national level to evolve a national scheme for people living with HIV and their families, the NACO director said.

    “We are trying to work on an insurance policy that will provide a package of services. We want to include even healthy people and families of those with HIV. A scheme for only the HIV infected would mean higher premiums,” Sujatha Rao said.
