Medicare Super Top-up

While it is a decent super top up option, you don't really get a disproportionately large cover since the plan only allows you to top up your base policy by about 15 lakhs tops. So if you are ever hospitalized for a complicated condition, then the cover might not suffice.

What's good here?

co_pay

You’ll never have to split the bill

The insurer will bear the entire cost of treatment (up to the sum insured). You won’t have to pay a single penny. Meaning this policy has no co-payment.

You can pick any room you like

Shared room, single room, deluxe room or any room that’s available. The insurer won’t nitpick on your choice of room since the policy has no restrictions on room rent.

What's bad here?

ped

Long waiting period for pre-existing diseases

If you’re already dealing with diabetes, cardiovascular problems or any such illnesses, the insurer will cover all costs arising out of these pre-existing problems only after 4 long years. It could be much shorter you know? Like 2 years perhaps!

pre_post

Pre & Post hospitalization expenses covered

No worries if the doctor had to run a host of diagnostic tests before or after hospitalizing you. The insurer has your back. They will cover this amount in full for a pretty reasonable duration -  days before you are hospitalized and days after discharge. This includes the cost of medication by the way.

What's lacking here?

restoration

No Restoration Benefit

Some policies will tell you - Even after you claim part of the cover on one occasion, you will have the full cover restored, if you are hospitalized another time during the same year. So if you have a family cover and multiple members of the family are hospitalized in the same year, this feature will come in handy. Unfortunately, this policy offers no such benefit.

No Bonus for being healthy and not claiming insurance

Some policies offer you extra cover if you go an entire year without claiming your insurance. This policy, however, offers no such benefit.

health_checkup

Your insurer doesn’t provide free health check-ups

If you want to get a full-body checkup just to make sure you’re in fine working condition, be ready to pay for it yourself.
