The exorbitant cost of chemo drugs has often been a critical thought of concern for cancer families and individuals. This has affected middle-income people too, as this whole treatment is for the long term. The Govt. of Kerala is providing substantial support through the ‘Karunya program’ for patients from below the poverty line.
However, majority of patients who fall just above the poverty line, there exist no major support systems. Besides, most of the patients who are taking treatment in private hospitals are not eligible for Karunya support. The main objective of this initiative is to provide quality cancer drugs at a highly subsidized rate up to 90% discount from the MRP rate for all patients.
