ICICI Lombard Healthcare Plus

Objective

This policy aims at providing an incremental protection to policyholders. It is useful to increase the existing health insurance cover.

Our View

This policy is beneficial as it is designed to cover higher claims, that are beyond the reach of your existing policy, at reasonable premium rates. The premiums reduce further as you move to higher deductible and a higher sum insured. The only constraint is that deductible applies to every single treatment undertaken as an inpatient in a hospital. People with adverse family history may consider this policy in addition to their basic health cover.

Suited for

Anyone who wishes to increase the existing insurance cover may buy this policy. It is also suitable for employees who feel the health cover from employer is inadequate.

What does it do?

In case of a claim, initial expenses upto deductible limit have to be borne by existing policy (if any) or by the policyholder. Insurance company pays the amount exceeding deductible limit upto the sum insured. It is important to understand that this policy gets triggered only if claim amount exceeds the deductible during a single claim.
