Arogya Sanjeevani

Cover hospitalisation with a 5% co-pay on every admissible claim, cap room rent at 2% of the sum insured up to ₹5,000 a day, and add a 5% cumulative bonus each claim-free year up to 50%.

What Makes It Special:

Arogya Sanjeevani is a Niva Bupa standard health plan with a sum insured of ₹1 lakh to ₹5 lakh, AYUSH and modern treatment cover, and a 15-day free-look period. It excludes maternity and carries a 5% co-payment on each claim. It provides in-patient hospitalisation cover on an individual or family...

Best For:

  • Buyers who want AYUSH and modern treatment cover

  • Buyers who do not need maternity or OPD cover

  • Families who want a floater with parents and children under one policy

  • Buyers who want basic in-patient cover at an affordable premium

  • First-time health insurance buyers

VS
HDFC ERGO

Health Wallet

Hospitalisation cover plus a carry-forward reserve for everyday medical costs

What Makes It Special:

Health Wallet pairs a conventional hospitalisation cover with a Reserve Benefit that behaves like a medical savings account inside the policy: unused amounts carry forward to the next policy year and earn a 6% bonus at renewal, the balance can be spent on outpatient and ordinarily non-payable costs such as...

Best For:

  • Families expecting to stay claim-free who want the Multiplier Benefit to double the basic sum insured over two years

  • Long-term policyholders who will stay beyond five renewals and want to use the accrued Reserve to pay up to half of their renewal premium

  • Buyers who already hold another health policy or a corporate cover and can take the optional deductible to reduce premium

  • People who dislike the idea of paying premiums with nothing to show for claim-free years, since the Reserve carries forward and earns a 6% bonus

  • Buyers who regularly spend on consultations, medicines, dental care, spectacles or diagnostics and want a policy that contributes to those costs, not only to hospitalisation

Quick Decision Guide

  • Call 1860-500-8888 to confirm room rent limits and the current network before buying.

  • Confirm the waiting periods and any cataract sublimit on your policy schedule before buying.

  • The sum insured is capped at ₹5 lakh, so check whether it covers your expected treatment costs.

  • A 5% co-payment applies to each claim, so factor that into your out-of-pocket costs.

  • Maternity is excluded, so choose another plan if you need it.

  • Room rent, ICU limits, pre- and post-hospitalisation periods, day care cover in India and AYUSH are not stated in the available summary literature, so read the policy wording on those before buying.

  • A claim resets the Multiplier Benefit's progress, so if you expect to claim in the early years, do not size the sum insured on the assumption that it will double.

  • The preventive health check-up limit is tied to your Reserve Benefit rather than being a flat entitlement, so ask what limit applies at your chosen sum insured before counting on it.

  • The built-in Restore Benefit is narrow — once a policy year, only after the basic sum insured and Multiplier are fully exhausted, only for future claims, and not for an illness already claimed that year — so price the Unlimited Restore add-on if multiple claims are a realistic prospect.

  • The optional deductible cancels the Recovery Benefit, so if the ₹10,000 lump sum for a stay beyond 10 days matters to you, weigh it against the premium the deductible saves.
