What is Health Insurance?

Health insurance is a coverage which safeguards against the financial implications of a medical contingency. A health insurance policy usually covers the hospital and medical bills that you might incur in the case of a covered illness or accidental injury.

There are two main types of health insurance plans – indemnity and fixed benefit health plans. Indemnity plans pay the actual medical costs that you incur in the case of a sickness or injury. Fixed benefit plans, on the other hand, pay a lump sum benefit irrespective of the actual medical costs incurred.
Indemnity health insurance plans, also called mediclaim or medical insurance plans, are quite popular since they help you avail of cashless treatments without worrying about hospital bills, medical expenses etc.

  • Check for the cashless network hospitals – the wider the better

  • Check for the exclusions of the health policy – the lesser the better

While buying the policy, the cost of the premium is often the most important thing you may evaluate. While calculating health insurance premiums, a lot of factors are taken into consideration; these include:

  • Age of the insured policyholder

  • Type of health plan

  • Sum assured

  • Lifestyle choices

  • Add-on covers

  • Pre-existing diseases

  • Family medical history

  • Number of family members being covered

  • Geographical location etc.

Yes. You have the flexibility to add more people to the existing health insurance policy. However, the health insurance premium also increases with the inclusion of a new member.

Children of any age can be included in the health insurance policy right from the day they are born. For instance, if you have purchased Zurich Kotak Heath Care Policy, you can include your child (up to 25 years) in the existing policy.

The requirement of a medical examination depends on your age, sum insured and the policy that you choose. Some plans might require a medical check-up while others might not. However, if you are older and/or if you are opting for a high sum insured, the medical examination usually becomes necessary before the coverage is granted.

If you or any member of your family is admitted to a non-network hospital, you can request the insurance company for reimbursement of the hospital expenses. Health insurance policyholders at Zurich Kotak General Insurance can initiate the process in the following way:

  • Call on 1800 266 4545 or mail us at care@zurichkotak.com

  • Collect the reimbursement form from the hospital

  • After the discharge, submit the claim form to the insurance company along with the original copy of hospital bills, discharge report & other payment receipts

  • Post verification, the insurance company may approve or disapprove the claim
