Will my health insurance cover treatment abroad?

The standard policy does not include coverage for treatments abroad. However, with the optional Worldwide Cover add-on, global treatment expenses are covered, subject to policy terms.

What happens if I don’t use my health insurance benefits for the entire year?

Policyholders receive a guaranteed cumulative bonus of 20% for each claim-free year, up to a maximum of 100% of the sum insured

How does the waiting period affect my coverage?

The policy imposes a 30-day initial waiting period for hospitalizations, excluding accidents. Specific illnesses have a 2-year waiting period, and pre-existing diseases are covered after 3 years.

Testimonials

Real People. Real Relief

These are the moments that show what we really do. We don't sell you a policy. We stand by you when it matters most.

I want to sincerely thank Sunad for being there for me throughout the entire claim process. He helped me through so many ups and downs, always patient and ready to support when things got tough. I honestly don’t know how I would have managed without his guidance and encouragement. Sunad made a difficult situation feel a lot less stressful, and I’m truly grateful for his kindness and steadfast help.

Prashant Pandey

Mumbai, Maharashtra

Had a great experience with them during a difficult time. After my mother’s accident, we had to pay the hospital bill upfront, as cashless wasn’t available. They guided us through the reimbursement process, helped file the claim, and consistently followed up with the insurer until it was settled. Their support with the post-hospitalization claim was equally prompt and thorough.

Jatin Gala

My heartfelt thanks to the OneAssure team for making my insurance claim process effortless. Right from the very first interaction, they demonstrated professionalism, clear communication, and an impressive command of the procedures involved. Their swift updates, timely guidance, and persistent follow-through removed all the stress from what could have been a complicated experience.
