Quick Decision Guide

  • Check the waiting periods and daycare treatment caps carefully before purchase

  • May not suit buyers looking for in-built OPD or maternity coverage

  • Suitable for buyers who want extra cover for accidental or cancer hospitalisation through boosters

  • Useful for people who want to earn up to 30% of premium back through HealthReturns™ wellness rewards

  • Good option if you want a budget-friendly plan with no room rent capping on higher Sum Insured options

  • Things to Consider: Domestic OPD cover and Second Medical Opinion are not included in Gold.

  • Things to Consider: Robotic surgery, some mental disorders and HIV/AIDS have sub-limits; mental illness has a 36-month waiting period.

  • Things to Consider: Choosing Zone 2 pricing means a 20% co-payment for treatment in Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Kolkata and Gujarat.

  • Things to Consider: Maternity cover is only for Family Floater / Family First policies and needs 24 months of continuous cover.

  • Reasons to Consider: In-built international cover (₹30 Lakh, one trip) and LASER surgery cover are included.

  • Reasons to Consider: PED waiting period is 24 months and specific disease waiting period is just 12 months.

  • Reasons to Consider: Pre and post-hospitalisation are covered for 90 and 180 days.
