Saumya Tandon is taking care of her staff’s medical insurance.

Actor Saumya Tandon has bought medical insurance for her staff members and she will pay the premium amount every year

Asource reveals that Saumya Tandon’s driver, recently collapsed on the set of her television show. Apparently, his wife was unable to admit him to a hospital, owing to expensive medical bills that she could not afford to pay. This came as a shock to Saumya, who immediately took charge of the situation. “The actor took care of her driver’s medical expenses. She also decided to buy medical insurance for him as well as for four of her other staff members. Saumya will be paying a premium of Rs 50,000, every year, for her staff ’s health insurance,” informs the source.

When contacted, Saumya says, “I was shocked when my driver and his wife insisted that they could recuperate at home as they couldn’t afford [to pay] the hospital bills. These people rely on local dispensaries that dole out saline and injections, without proper diagnoses.”

Saumya informs that her staff members include drivers, maids and office boys. “They should be medically insured every year. I don’t want them to be afraid of visiting a hospital and seek proper treatment. I have decided to pay for my staff ’s insurance every year because in our country, the poor do not get proper medical treatment and the government hospitals are in shambles,” she says.
