KARACHI: Oraan, a start-up dedicated to enhancement of financial inclusion and security, has joined hands with State Life Insurance Corporation to launch a cancer protection plan, Sinf-e-Aahan Cancer Protection (SACP) Plan.

According to a press release, this plan is exclusively tailored for women, providing crucial financial security in the face of cancer diagnosis.

As per WHO, over 90,000 Pakistani women are diagnosed with cancer each year and over half of them don’t survive because of lack of awareness and financial enablement.

SACP aims to provide cashless health insurance services tailored to women’s health for as low as Rs200 premium for coverage up to Rs200,000.
