OnawaMed expands footprint countrywide
Since its product launch in 2020, OnawaMed, underwritten by Trustco Life, has made incredible strides in its reach with13 designated service providers countrywide currently.
The northern regions equally remain a very strong component of the service leg of OnawaMed. Trustco Life successfully launched OnawaMed as an affordable and unique medical insurance product in May 2020.
