DFCC Bank has entered into a strategic partnership with Nawaloka Medicare (Pvt) Ltd. The partnership aims to enhance the well-being of its Garusaru senior citizen savings account holders by offering exclusive healthcare benefits across Nawaloka’s Medicare Hospitals and laboratory network.

This initiative is part of DFCC Bank’s ongoing commitment to delivering value beyond traditional banking by supporting senior citizens’ lifestyle, health, and financial security. Through this collaboration, DFCC Garusaru account holders will now enjoy special discounts on selected medical services, making quality healthcare more accessible and affordable.

These benefits are available across Nawaloka Medicare branches in Colombo 07, Negombo, Gampaha, and Kurunegala. They are designed to improve healthcare access for elderly customers while reinforcing DFCC Bank’s dedication to holistic, customer-centric service.

“At DFCC Bank, we believe financial well-being goes hand in hand with physical well-being—especially for our senior citizens. This partnership with Nawaloka Medicare allows us to provide Garusaru customers with meaningful healthcare support alongside their banking benefits. It reflects our ongoing mission to deliver solutions that are relevant, compassionate, and focused on quality of life,” said Aasiri Iddamalgoda, Senior Vice President – Retail Banking and SME at DFCC Bank.

The partnership signifies a broader vision for long-term collaboration, combining financial services and healthcare to serve the needs of an ageing population. DFCC Bank remains committed to continuously enhancing its Garusaru senior citizen proposition, ensuring that customers receive the attention, respect, and value they deserve during their golden years.

DFCC Garusaru is more than a savings account—it is a platform of care and convenience, offering preferential banking services, lifestyle benefits, and essential health privileges through this important new alliance with Nawaloka Medicare.
