Best For:
Flexible sum insured options
Critical illness and daycare treatments

Comprehensive individual and family coverage
VS
Health Booster
Buy a super top-up that pays hospital bills above a deductible of ₹3 lakh, ₹4 lakh or ₹5 lakh, with a sum insured from ₹5 lakh to ₹50 lakh, inpatient AYUSH cover and a once-a-year reset for an unrelated illness.
What Makes It Special:
Health Booster is a deductible-based health insurance product designed to provide additional financial protection when eligible hospitalisation expenses exceed the selected deductible. Its value depends on the relationship between the deductible, the available sum insured and the coverage provided by the policyholder's primary health insurance. Waiting periods, eligible expenses, exclusions...
Best For:
People who are comfortable checking waiting periods, exclusions and deductible conditions before purchasing additional cover.
Buyers comparing a top-up plan with a super top-up plan who want to understand how the deductible is applied to claims.
Families looking to increase their overall potential health insurance protection without relying entirely on a single base policy.
Buyers who can manage expenses up to the deductible and want cover for eligible expenses above that amount.
People who already have health insurance and want additional protection against large medical bills.

Quick Decision Guide
Covers daycare treatments without overnight stay.
Pre- and post-hospitalization expenses included.
Safeguards against critical illness and emergencies.
Comprehensive coverage for hospitalization and treatment.
Before buying, compare the premium, deductible, sum insured and claim conditions with the cost of increasing your existing base policy.
If you expect to claim for a specific treatment, verify that the treatment is covered and that its waiting period and exclusions are satisfied.
If you have a pre-existing disease, check that it has been disclosed and accepted and understand the applicable waiting period before relying on the cover.
If you may have several hospitalisation claims in one year, confirm whether the deductible applies per claim or on an aggregate basis under your specific policy version.
If you already have a base health policy, compare its sum insured with the Health Booster deductible to identify any potential coverage gap.
