One of the significant benefit of the LIC Jeevan Arogya Policy is the Major Surgical Benefit (MSB) which offers a lumpsum payment in case any of the members covered in the plan undergoes a major surgery. Let us understand this benefit before going through the list of Major Surgeries and 

Major Surgical Benefit (MSB)

In case of a major surgery during the policy period, an amount equal to 100 times the initial HCB selected will be paid to the policyholder as part of this benefit. So the payouts for MSB will be as follows:
 
Initial Hospital Cash Benefit( HCB) Selected Major Surgical Benefit (MSB)
Rs. 1,000 per day Rs. 1,00,000
Rs. 2,000 per day Rs. 2,00,000
Rs. 3,000 per day Rs. 3,00,000
Rs. 4,000 per day Rs. 4,00,000

The list of Major Surgeries are divided into Category 1, Category 2, Category 3 and Category 4. You will be paid only a % of the total MSB as shown below:
 
Category of Surgery % of MSB to be Paid
Category 1 100%
Category 2 60%
Category 3 40%
Category 4 20%

Example: In case you have opted for HCB of Rs. 2,000 per day, the MSB will work out to Rs. 2,00,000. Now you will get the following payouts in case of a Major Surgery.
 
Category of Major Surgery Payout
Category 1 Rs. 2,00,000
Category 2 Rs. 1,20,000
Category 3 Rs. 80,000
