Apollo Munich launches ENERGY, a plan for type II diabetes

MUMBAI: Private insurer Apollo Munich today launched ENERGY -- a plan that provides insurance cover for those suffering from type II diabetes.

"The insurance and wellness ecosystem we have built will help those with Diabetes control it much better, and lead a close-to-normal lifestyle. We used the considerable technical and medical know-how of our parents - Apollo Hospitals and Munich Health - to develop this product," Apollo Munich Health Insurance Chief Executive Officer Antony Jacob said in a release here.

The plan will initially be available in eight cities from December 16, and nationally next year.

Apollo Munich is a joint venture between the Apollo Hospitals Group and Munich Health.
