A 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 significant 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 is 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 an 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 |
