Quick Decision Guide

  • Review the applicable room-rent, treatment sub-limits and waiting periods before purchasing, particularly the 36-month PED waiting period.

  • Check the plan carefully if maternity coverage is a priority, as maternity expenses are not covered.

  • Consider it if you want AYUSH treatment and annual health check-up benefits.

  • Choose it if 60-day pre- and 180-day post-hospitalisation coverage is important to you.

  • Choose Care Classic if you want family floater coverage with unlimited automatic recharge.

  • Before choosing the plan, consider its waiting periods, age-linked and network-related co-payment conditions, room category and other policy terms that may affect your claim.

  • If you want additional protection after your available Sum Insured and accrued Cumulative Bonus are exhausted, the Restore Benefit automatically reinstates 100% of the Sum Insured once during the policy year, subject to applicable conditions.

  • MediCare LITE may be considered if you want both Individual and Family Floater policy options, with coverage available for eligible family members.

  • The plan offers Sum Insured options of ₹5 lakh, ₹7.5 lakh, ₹10 lakh, ₹15 lakh and ₹20 lakh, allowing you to select the coverage amount applicable to your requirements.

  • Consider MediCare LITE if you want a health insurance plan with In-Patient Treatment, Day Care Treatment and related medical expenses covered under one policy.
