What is a Health Insurance?
A health insurance or a medical insurance is a type of general insurance that safeguards you against financial losses by covering for you when you're faced with a health condition or medical emergency such as due to a disease, illness or even an accident.

This includes expenses incurred during pre and post-hospitalization, annual health check-ups, psychiatric support, critical illnesses and maternity-related expenses amongst others, as per your customized health insurance plan.

Think of it like that one friend who you know will always be there for you whenever you're sick or even just feeling low.

Daycare procedures: When one needs to be admitted to the hospital for a treatment or operation, but for less than 24-hours only. These treatments are referred to as daycare procedures.

Pre-hospitalization expenses: Medical bills go beyond what you need to pay for your stay at the hospitalization. Medical expenses incurred before hospitalization are called pre-hospitalization expenses. For eg: Expenses due to diagnostic tests.

Cumulative bonus: When you don't make any health insurance claims during the year, your insurer will increase your sum insured without charging you any extra premium for it. This increase in your sum insured is called as cumulative bonus.
