Personal Accident and Health Insurance in Pakistan, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2019

All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
Total public expenditure on healthcare in Pakistan has not been sufficient to meet demand. According to statistics from the World Bank, the contribution of public spending accounted for only 35.2% of the total healthcare expenditure in 2014, causing the public to bear the remaining expenditure either through private insurance or out-of-pocket payments. It is evident that the cost of medicine and diagnostic tests have been growing rapidly, making medical treatment unaffordable for low-income groups. Due to expensive medical treatment, health insurance has emerged as one of the best solutions to avoid any financial risks.
The health segment is in early stages of development, and has been unable to significantly penetrate the market and generate profit. The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) took several initiatives during the review period to develop the segment and increase penetration. The regulator encouraged insurers to conduct a pilot project on health insurance in collaboration with leading distribution channels, including banks and other financial institutions. These steps are expected to accelerate sales through banks and other financial institutions, which will subsequently strengthen the private health insurance business.
