PPN

GIPSA stands for the General Insurance Public Sector Association, a group of four public sector general insurance companies. These companies are National Insurance, Oriental Insurance, United India Insurance, and New India Assurance. These insurers have empaneled a number of hospitals across India, referred to as the Preferred Provider Network (PPN). Apart from the PPN package rates for surgical procedures, hospitals also agree to offer discounts on their cash rates (treatment costs for patients without insurance) to policyholders of these insurance companies.
