Lovepreet Rishi and 13 others have signed recently.

The Issue

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) affects young adults and often leads to lifelong disability. Patients require continuous treatment, including Disease Modifying Therapies (DMTs), physiotherapy, relapse management, and annual MRI scans. These essential treatments are expensive and unaffordable for many.

 

We request:

 

1. Standard health insurance that covers complete MS treatment and lifelong care.

2. MS to be covered from Day 1 of policy activation, with no long waiting periods and guaranteed lifetime renewability.

3. Dedicated MS clinics with DMT availability, physiotherapy, and relapse care services.

4. Annual free MRI for all diagnosed MS patients.

5. Enhanced UDID disability benefits, including employment support and an updated pension structure.

Access to healthcare is part of the Right to Life (Article 21). MS patients deserve fair treatment, dignity, and long-term support.
