Sentro – Empowering small businesses with comprehensive group health insurance solutions amidst

For small business proprietors, the paramount concern amid the ongoing pandemic revolves around the health and well-being of their employees. The critical question arises: do these employees possess the financial means to navigate the aftermath of a medical emergency, or will they be compelled to deplete their savings to settle exorbitant hospital bills? The answer lies in the proactive step of providing group health insurance. Group health insurance stands as a specialized health coverage plan tailored to cover a collective of individuals employed within the same organization. Positioned as an employee benefit, the financial responsibility for the premium is typically shouldered by the employer. This form of insurance is alternatively known as corporate health insurance or employee health insurance.

The scope of a group health insurance plan extends beyond the individual employee, encompassing their immediate family members—spouses, parents, and children. This inclusive approach recognizes the interconnected nature of familial health needs, offering a more holistic coverage that addresses the health concerns of the entire household. Group health insurance provides comprehensive coverage that goes beyond the fundamental aspects. It includes provisions for pre and post-hospitalization, coverage during hospitalization, day-care procedures, and even domiciliary hospitalization. The versatility of these plans allows for the inclusion of additional benefits, such as maternity coverage and accidental cover, enhancing the overall protection provided.

Sentro operates as a comprehensive group insurance platform, providing a cloud-based solution that spans the entire group insurance and benefits value chain.
