Aditya Birla's Activ One MAX plan stands out for its focus on wellness and preventive care alongside robust hospitalization benefits. The "HealthReturns™" feature is particularly appealing, offering up to 100% of premiums back as rewards for maintaining a healthy lifestyle—an innovative way to incentivize fitness. At the same time, the Unlimited "Reload of Sum Insured" ensures uninterrupted coverage even after exhausting the base sum insured, which is a significant advantage during multiple claims in a policy year. The Activ One MAX also comes with a renewal bonus of up to 100% every year, which is capped at 500% of the original base sum insured, regardless of a claim.

Additionally, coverage for modern treatments and day-care procedures ensures flexibility in addressing diverse healthcare needs. In addition, it offers coverage for Asthma, Hypertension, Hyperlipidemia, Diabetes mellitus, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Obesity, and Coronary Artery Disease from Day 1 via the chronic care add-on. The plan also offers inbuilt consumables coverage.

Pros

Offers a wide range of features.

Premiums are relatively well priced.

Insurer has a solid track record with great claim and service metrics.

Cons

Maternity benefits not offered, which is a notable gap.

Doctor consultations are not covered, which could be a drawback for some. Need to opt add-on for doctor consultations.
