Objective | An online health insurance policy which aims to protect insured member(s) from expenses incurred on treatment taken as an inpatient along with several other benefits available for extra price. |
| |||||
Suited for | Anyone between 5 and 80 years (65 years for a Rs 10 lakh cover) is eligible to buy this policy on individual or floater basis. |
| |||||
What does it do? | This policy can be bought for an individual, a family floater or a group. Group policy can avail a discount on premium if bought for more than 500 persons. It provides for hospitalisation expenses with sub-limits on room rent and boarding, pre and post hospitalisation expenses and ambulance charges. |
| |||||
Pros | It covers non-allopathic treatment as well. |
| |||||
Cons | Room rent and boarding charges are capped. |
| |||||
Our View | This is a good policy that also covers non-allopathic treatment. Policyholders can customise the policy by adding supplementary benefits. For instance, patient care benefit pays a daily cash amount for nursing charges, which is useful.The only drawback is the capping on room rent and boarding. Even though it does not offer a lifelong policy renewal, 80 years is a long enough tenure |
