Dialysis
Initiative
To develop a high impact, holistic, sustainable and collaborative ecosystem that offers free/ affordable, quality dialysis services to renal patients in parts of India where there is limited dialysis infrastructure.
The First Trigger
Mr. Prem Watsa, CEO & Chairman Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited met our Honourable Prime Minister and expressed his desire to help underprivileged Indians. Our Honourable PM suggested that to focus on supporting the worthy cause of affordable dialysis access. Mr. Watsa on behalf of the Group committed to bring together the partners & resources, and contribute significantly in the process of providing dialysis machines to duly serve patients across the country in areas where dialysis facilities are limited or not available.
Our Commitment
The Fairfax Group has committed to coordinate the resources required to deploy 2000+ dialysis machines and support more than 30 States/UTs at more than 450+ dialysis centers across India. We will help create a complete ecosystem to support the self-sustenance of the dialysis centers which in turn would provide free/affordable quality dialysis to the needy patients in areas where there is limited or no dialysis facilities.

90% of patients with End Stage Renal Disease in South Asia die within months of diagnosis because they cannot afford treatmen1
Premature deaths of adults due to renal ailments is more than the fatalities related to HIV/AIDS in the country2
By 2040, Chronic Kidney Disease would be 5th rank as leading cause of disease2
The cost of treatment for dialysis is an average of ₹ 2,40,000 per year, making it unaffordable for many patients
It is also estimated that 20% of the End Stage Renal Disease population is around 30 years of age, leading to a loss of earnings for the family
10% of health insurance claim goes for dialysis & would further rise3
