Hemas Hospitals – Sri Lanka’s Most Loved Healthcare Brand according to LMD – has positioned itself as Sri Lanka’s most awarded, internationally accredited hospital chain that provides accessibility to high-quality, affordable, and convenient healthcare services for beneficiaries of the Agrahara Insurance Scheme for State-sector employees. 

Established under the National Insurance Trust Fund, Agrahara offers comprehensive health coverage to over 3 million Government and semi-Government employees and pensioners. Now, these beneficiaries can leverage Hemas Hospitals’ extensive network and advanced capabilities to avail of patient-centric healthcare, together with substantial savings and other benefits.

Hemas Hospitals distinguishes itself in the healthcare sector by providing affordable pricing and value for money. Accordingly, Hemas Hospitals has introduced a specialised range of discounted medical packages tailored to meet the diverse needs of Agrahara beneficiaries. These packages cover essential and critical healthcare services, including caesarean and normal childbirth, knee and hip replacements, kidney transplants, neurosurgery, the entire spectrum of urology surgeries and many more. 

The offers specially crafted for Agrahara beneficiaries will provide affordable accessibility, and reaffirm Hemas Hospitals’ commitment to ensuring convenient access to medical treatment for Agrahara beneficiaries who have dedicated their lives to serving the nation.

In addition to these specialised packages, Hemas Hospitals is also offering substantial outpatient discounts to Agrahara beneficiaries. These include discounts on laboratory investigations and radiology services. Special rates on room charges and outpatient services are extended to family members as well. 

On top of Hemas Hospitals providing the most affordable prices without compromising quality of care and clinical outcomes, these comprehensive discounts are designed to provide additional extensive financial relief and accessible healthcare solutions to beneficiaries and their families. Patients will also enjoy the unparalleled convenience of Hemas Mobile Labs facility, allowing for samples to be collected from the comfort of home, with no added transport costs. This service is especially valuable for those who face mobility challenges. 

To further enhance the patient experience for Agrahara beneficiaries, Hemas Hospitals offers a suite of additional services designed to provide convenience and personalised care. This includes a waiver on admission fees, together with exclusive dedicated counters and teams, to facilitate a seamless, patient-centred experience and family support for Agrahara beneficiaries. 

Alongside this program, to promote prevention, Hemas Hospitals also spearheads several free of charge medical screening programs aimed at early detection, building health awareness among Government-sector employees. By promoting a proactive approach to health and wellbeing, these programs encourage Government-sector employees to prioritise wellness and adopt healthier lifestyles.

Hemas Hospitals Managing Director Dr. Lakith Peiris remarked: “Collaborating with the National Insurance Trust Fund is a significant step in our mission to elevate the healthcare experience for over 3 million Agrahara beneficiaries. Our commitment is to deliver affordable, accessible, patient-focused, and high-quality compassionate care, positively impacting the lives of Government-sector employees and their families. In honour of their service to our nation, we are delighted to offer several exclusive benefits tailored to their needs.”

These services and benefits are made available thanks to a landmark collaboration between Hemas Hospitals and the National Insurance Trust Fund, which has been formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This partnership aims to ensure that Agrahara beneficiaries receive high-quality medical services, thereby contributing to the overall improvement of healthcare standards within the public sector.
