How it works

In this plan, premium is divided into 2 parts- one part is utilized to provide health protection and the other part is utilized for investment in the market linked fund.

In this plan, the policyholder has Health Cover for which he needs to choose a HCB, i.e. Hospitalisation Cash Benefit, i.e. the daily cash benefit on hospitalisation. Thus, if he is hospitalized, he would receive HCB for the number of days of hospitalisation. HCB increases by 5% every year.

Along with this coverage, the policyholder would also get Major Surgical Benefit of 200 times the HCB. This Lump Sum amount would be provided to the policyholder in case of diagnosis of any of the major surgeries enlisted, irrespective of the amount spent of treatment. Also, domiciliary treatment expenses are also paid for which there is no requirement for hospitalisation.
