Objective | A health policy which will take care of medical needs of a young couple. It will cover maternity expenses too. |
| |||||
Suited for | This policy is suitable for youngsters. |
| |||||
What does it do? | One can opt for either the 3-lakh or 5-lakh policy. It covers hospitalisation bills, pre and post hospitalisation expenses, maternity expenses and newborn baby. It pays a lump sum amount if the baby is born with Down's syndrome or Cerebral Palsy. It also provides for emergency ambulance and non-allopathic treatment except Naturopathy. The expenses are capped up to stated in the plan. |
| |||||
Pros | Waiting period for maternity cover reduces to two years if one opts for a 4-year policy term. |
| |||||
Cons | Policy offers a maximum cover of Rs 5 lakh, which may not be sufficient for a family of three. |
| |||||
Our View | Though it offers decent benefits and features, the policy is little expensive as compared to other products in the market. Cover for non-allopathic treatment may be a cause for higher price. Coverage upto maximum of 45 years of age is another drawback. If you are looking for such a policy, consider substitutes from other insurers that are available at cheaper rates. |
