 IMA AP State Dr. N. Apparao Family Security Scheme-

Dear members of IMA &All office bearers at state and local branches’

Season’s greetings’

                    Secure Your Family’s Future with IMA’s Trusted Welfare Scheme

The Dr. N. Apparao Family Security Scheme (FSS), initiated by the Indian Medical Association (IMA) Andhra Pradesh State Branch, is a unique welfare program designed to provide financial protection to the families of IMA members. Named in honor of Dr. N. Apparao, the visionary behind this initiative, this scheme ensures peace of mind for doctors and their loved ones. The present strength  is 3410 . if we promote and enroll 2000 new doctors  in coming days, the scheme will become more robust and financially capable to provide much more service to the members. 

The IMA is pleased to announce enhanced efforts to boost participation in the Welfare Scheme, a program designed to offer significant long-term benefits to our members.

Why Choose the Dr. N. Apparao Family Security Scheme?

  • Financial Security: In the unfortunate event of a member’s demise, the scheme provides a substantial payout to nominees, with benefits BETWEEN ₹15 -20 Lakhs based on ACTIVE membership strength .
  • Fraternity-Based Support: Built on the principle of mutual aid, members contribute a small Bi-annual fraternity fee to support the families of deceased members, fostering a sense of community and brotherhood.
  • Transparent Management: Managed by the IMA AP State Branch with a focus on transparency, all contributions are directed to nominees or a corpus fund for the scheme’s financial stability.
  • Flexible Membership: Open to IMA life members below the age of 56 years. Members can opt out if unable to continue contributions, similar to term insurance or car insurance policies.
  • Capping of payment of bills: the member has to pay only 60 bills. Previously it was life time . A key feature making this scheme particularly attractive is that members are not required to contribute for lifelong periods, providing security without the commitment of indefinite financial contributions.

Benefits proposed to be implemented in future with consent of council:

  • Additional Benefits: Provides financial assistance to members who become permanently disabled and unable to practice, ensuring support during challenging times.

Why Doctors Need This Scheme

Doctors invest heavily in their practices, homes, and vehicles, often taking loans averaging ₹50lakhs-2crores. With an average career spanning 30 years and potential net earnings of ₹1.5-5 Crores, an unexpected tragedy can leave families financially vulnerable. So every doctor needs life coverage of minimum 50lacs to 1 crore. The Dr. N. Apparao FSS offers robust coverage to safeguard your family’s future, providing an alternative to traditional insurance policies like LIC or private insurers.
