Tata AIA Health First

Tata AIG Life Health First is a comprehensive lump sum payout health plan from Tata AIG Life Insurance. This plan is different from those offered by non – life insurance companies, which only reimburse the actual expenses incurred. While this is important, it is also important to note that these do not provide for other related expenses such as replacement of income that is lost due to hospitalization or expenses of follow up treatment.  

This policy offers a number of covers under the same plan, with each cover having a different coverage amount. This ensures that many health-related problems can be financially covered under the same plan – coverage such as Hospitalization, Critical Illness, Surgery, Post-hospitalization and Unfortunate Death.

• In case of hospitalisation the policy pays from day 1
• Pays the entire coverage amount if a covered unfortunate event were to occur, irrespective of the actual expense incurred. This ensures that additional money is available as income replacement.
• Premiums remain the same during the policy term of 5 years, which means that you don’t have to pay a higher premium each year, as is the case with most traditional reimbursement plans. Also, claims made will not affect the premium during the policy term.
• Over the entire policy term, it is possible to make multiple claims for the hospitalisation benefits, meaning that the coverage is available every year.
