Major Breakthroughs
Since the formulation of the business plan, VimoSEWA has made major strides in building an active and responsible management team. With few sources for them to learn from, they have identified problems and developed solutions.
The outreach in 2005 was over 120,000 adults insured, a large increase from the 30,000 insured in 2000. Moreover, members have a much better understanding of benefits. The insurance scheme has enhanced benefits while increasing premiums, responding to members needs and staying within their ability to pay.
