Quick Decision Guide

  • Lock the Clock is not included in Gold, and the premium may change at renewal according to the applicable pricing terms.

  • Consumables and specified non-payable items require the optional Safeguard or Safeguard+ benefit.

  • Maternity expenses and routine OPD expenses are not covered under the base plan.

  • Listed conditions and procedures have a 24-month waiting period.

  • The standard pre-existing disease waiting period is 36 months, with optional reductions to 1 or 2 years at additional premium.

  • Annual health check-ups are available from Day 1, and unlimited e-consultations with network partners are included.

  • Eligible hospitalisation of 2 hours or more is covered.

  • Booster+ 10X carries forward unused Base Sum Insured into subsequent policy years.

  • ReAssureX provides unlimited reinstatements after the first paid claim, with each claim under the benefit covered up to the Base Sum Insured.

  • No standard room rent cap, with ICU expenses covered up to the Sum Insured.

  • Confirm the variant’s sum insured and feature list on the current policy schedule, since the wording reviewed is from around 2018 to 2019.

  • Confirm the co-payment position with ICICI Lombard on 1800 2666 before buying, since a third-party source mentions 20% in some cases.

  • Maternity needs a 3-year term and a 9-month wait, so decide early if you plan a pregnancy.

  • The 48-month PED waiting period is long, so buy early if you have existing conditions.

  • Choose the variant by need: Value is the lowest-cost option, and Uber adds air ambulance, dental and the highest sum insured.
