    FAQs

    1. Can you tell me what exactly is a family floater policy?
    2. A family floater policy is basically a health insurance policy that covers the dependents of the policyholder such as parents, spouse, and children. The sum assured is not divided by each member listed in the health insurance policy, rather the sum assured is aggregated between the members listed in the policy.

    3. What exactly is health insurance co-payment? Are there any benefits of opting for co-payment?
    4. Co-payment basically means that the policyholder is agreeing to share the claim amount to cover the hospitalisation expenses. Policyholders can choose co-payment between 10% and 30% of the claim amount. Policyholders can opt for the co-payment option if they wish to reduce the premium of the health insurance policy.

    5. Does the sum assured increase if I am admitted in a hospital due to an accident?
    6. Yes, as per the terms and conditions set by State Bank of India, if the policyholder is admitted in hospital due to an accident, then the sum assured increases to 125% subject to a maximum of Rs.1 lakh.

    7. Can I request for a premium refund if I have not made a claim during the period of the policy?
    8. No, you will not get a premium refund if you have had a claim-free year, however, as a bonus for not making a claim the entire policy period, the sum assured will increase by 5% every policy year, subject to a maximum increase of 25%.

    9. Is it better to port my health insurance policy or just get a fresh policy with another insurer?
    10. If you have held the health insurance policy for a certain number of years, it is better to port the policy rather than opt for a fresh policy with another insurer as this will prevent discontinuance of your health insurance cover. In addition, treatment for certain diseases and pre-existing diseases have a waiting period and with a fresh policy you will have to wait out the years before you can claim coverage for those diseases. In short, porting your existing policy at the time of renewal makes the most sense.
