How is the premium calculated for Royal Sundaram's Family Plus Health Insurance Plan?

The premium on your health insurance policy is determined by
  • Insurance plan
    Your insurance plan will determine your premium and your coverage. A larger sum insured will have a higher premium and vice versa. Additionally, the number of people insured by the policy will also determine the premium amount.
  • Pre-existing medical conditions
    Any pre-existing medical conditions are likely to increase your premium amount. Additionally, there will be a waiting period before you can claim insurance for treating pre-existing medical conditions.
  • Lifestyle
    Your current lifestyle can greatly affect your health insurance premium as the risk of health related concerns increases or decreases due to your lifestyle choices. For instance, smokers stand a greater risk of health concerns in the future and that's why their premium is likely to be higher.
  • Age
    Your age is a huge factor in determining your health insurance premium. The younger you are, the lower your premium. It is recommended to purchase a health insurance premium at a young age because the immune system of a younger person is usually much stronger. This lowers the probability of medical treatment. This means you can double your health cover using no claim bonuses. As a person's age advances, the health risks increase making the premium much higher.
  • Location
    Your location can also help determine the cost of your premium. If you are residing in places other than Delhi/NCR, Mumbai (including Thane and Vashi), Bengaluru, Chennai, Pune, Hyderabad, Kolkata and Gujarat, we offer a 15% discount on your premium.

Is Maternity benefit covered under Family Plus? Is Maternity benefit covered under Family Plus?
 

Maternity Expenses: For this benefit, atleast one adult member need to be covered in the policy at the time of first inception under the same Family Floater Policy. We pay Medical Expenses for the delivery of a child, only after 24 months of continuous coverage of mother since the inception of the first Policy with Us. The waiting Period of 24 months will start only after two adults are covered under the policy.

In case, customer is porting from any other policy providing maternity benefit, the respective waiting period served in that policy will be considered as waiting period waiver in Family Plus policy as per portability guideline. Maternity benefits are paid a maximum of Rs. 50,000 per delivery only for two deliveries for each female member covered during the lifetime of the Policy including any of its renewals. However, expenses in respect of harvesting and storage of stem cells are not covered.

Miscarriage will not be payable as a part of Maternity Benefit Claim.

Miscarriage can occur as a result of:

  • Accident
  • Internal Injury/Sickness/stress

If Miscarriage happens due to an internal injury/sickness/stress, it is not payable. However, it is payable when Miscarriage happens due to an accident.

New Born Baby: The new born baby will be covered as an insured person from birth. We will cover medical expenses towards the medical treatment of the Insured Person's new born baby while the Insured Person is Hospitalized as an Inpatient for delivery and we have accepted the maternity claim as payable. This benefit is equal to Individual Sum Insured of the mother. Post the expiry of the policy, new born need to be added as a separate member in the policy at the time of renewal.

Vaccination for New Born Baby: We will cover expenses for vaccination of the new born baby upto a limit of Rs. 10,000, if we have accepted the maternity claim as payable. If the Policy Period ends before the New Born Baby has completed one year, then, We will only cover such vaccinations until the baby completes one year, provided that We have accepted the baby as an Insured Person at the time of renewal of the Policy. This benefit is over and above the maternity benefit.

For example: Let us say child birth date is January 2, 2018 and the policy expiry date is April 13, 2018 and vaccination expenses paid till April 13, 2018 is Rs. 3500. Hence, for the rest of the charges to be paid, new born needs to be enrolled at the time of the renewal as a separate member in the policy.
