The Health Insurance TPA of India (HI-TPA), which has been set up by public sector non-life insurance companies to manage their in-house health claims, will begin operations within next few weeks. While a soft launch has already been done, formal launch of operations would happen in the next few days.
Industry sources said that hiring is also complete, which also includes personnel on deputation basis from other state-owned general insurance company. When the TPA is operational, a portion of claims (8-10%) that are now being handled by external third party administrators (TPAs) would move to the new body.
