Arpico Insurance steps in to help fight COVID-19
View(s):Arpico Insurance PLC, a fully owned subsidiary of one of Sri Lanka’s largest blue-chip conglomerate Richard Pieris & Company PLC, very recently announced that it will take care of all medical and life claims relating to the life-threatening upper respiratory disease.
Despite the disease being a global pandemic with insurance providers conventionally not covering medical expenses related to such nature, Arpico Insurance believes it’s an obligation and responsibility in these tough times to ensure sound health and well-being of every individual.
In a media release, Harsha De Alwis, acting CEO of Arpico Insurance PLC, said: “Together, we are facing a truly unprecedented situation. Our hearts go out to anyone who’s been impacted by the novel coronavirus, either directly or indirectly. We have been keeping a very close eye on the recommendations of the government and health authorities and we kindly ask everyone to follow their measures to come out of it stronger as a community.”
