Prime Bank PLC has announced a strategic partnership with Meena IVF & Fertility Care Ltd aimed at delivering specialised healthcare benefits to its customers and employees. The collaboration reflects the bank’s broader commitment to expanding value-added services and strengthening customer engagement through partnerships in the healthcare sector.
The agreement was formally signed at an event held at Prime Aspire in Dhaka, where senior representatives from both organisations gathered to mark the occasion. According to an official statement, the initiative is designed to improve access to quality reproductive healthcare while providing financial relief to eligible beneficiaries through exclusive discounts and service privileges.
Under the arrangement, customers enrolled in the Prime Bank Neera programme and employees of Prime Bank will be able to access a wide range of services offered by Meena IVF & Fertility Care Ltd at preferential rates. These services include fertility consultations, reproductive health assessments, diagnostic testing, and advanced treatment procedures designed to support couples experiencing fertility challenges.
The agreement was signed by Shaila Abedin, Senior Executive Vice President and Head of Liability at Prime Bank PLC, and Dr Lubna Yasmin, Chief Consultant at Meena IVF & Fertility Care Ltd. The ceremony was also attended by several senior officials, including Hossain Mohammad Zakaria, Head of Customer Proposition at Prime Bank, and Mehmud Hasan Joy, Senior Manager of Operations at Meena IVF & Fertility Care Ltd, along with other representatives from both organisations.
Bank officials noted that healthcare partnerships have become increasingly significant for financial institutions seeking to offer holistic services that extend beyond conventional banking products. By integrating healthcare benefits into customer programmes, banks are able to create stronger relationships with their clients while contributing to improved wellbeing among their stakeholders.
Fertility care has become an area of growing demand as more couples seek professional medical assistance for reproductive health concerns. However, the cost of specialised treatments can be substantial. Through this collaboration, Prime Bank aims to ease that burden by enabling its customers and staff to access reputable medical services at reduced costs.
