policy-benefits-header-icon
LIC Jeevan Arogya Plan Benefits are classified as follows:
  • Hospital cash benefit (HCB)
  • Major Surgical Benefit (MSB)
  • Day Care Procedure Benefit
  • Other Surgical Benefit
  • Ambulance Benefit
  • Premium waiver Benefit (PWB)
Hospital Cash Benefit (HCB)

In Jeevan Arogya, selecting the Hospital Cash Benefit (HCB), is the most important and starting point in understanding its benefits. All other benefits are linked to this amount.

Hospital Cash Benefit is the cash you get on a daily basis in case any member covered by this plan is hospitalised. You can choose your HCB to be any of the following:

  • Rs. 1,000 per day
  • Rs. 2,000 per day
  • Rs. 3,000 per day
  • Rs. 4,000 per day

You are eligible to receive the HCB if you have been admitted to the hospital for 24 hours. The daily cash benefit is only extended for the hospitalisation period after the first 24 hours in a non-ICU ward or room of the hospital.

Every year, this Daily Cash Benefit shall be increased by 5% of the HCB selected on purchase till it reached 1.5 times the HCB value chosen on purchase. So if you had chosen an HCB of Rs. 2,000 per day, the value of HCB will be as follows:

1st year HCB = Rs. 2,000
2nd year HCB = Rs. 2,100
3rd year HCB = Rs. 2,200
… it will keep increasing every year till it reaches 1.5 times i.e. Rs. 3,000 per day and the continue to remain the same.

Note:

In case there are no claims in the policy in a year, the HCB will be increased by 5% in addition to the increase shown above. Tho No Claim Benefit does not have an upper limit and will continue to accrue as long as no claims are made in the policy.
In case of hospitalisation of greater than 4 hours in the ICU ward of the hospital, you would be eligible to double the HCB benefit for that period.

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
Category 4 Rs. 40,000

No Claims Benefit (NCB)
