Family

Family health insurance covers the entire family in a single insurance plan, more like a group insurance plan and can be customized as per the family's needs.  These policies cover more than one family member on a single policy-single premium basis. The insured family gets the much-required health insurance coverage against rising medical expenses. 

With the increasing risk of diseases and expanding medical treatment costs, health insurance family plans have become the demand of the time. These policies can be customized as per family needs. Health insurance will provide coverage for various medical expenses such as in-patient hospitalization, pre and post-hospitalization, ambulance costs, day-care treatments, ICU charges, domiciliary hospitalization, etc. to ensure financial stability. Secure your loved ones with a Care family floater plan.

Here are some key points to keep in mind while buying a Family insurance plan.

1. A Family Insurance plan allows you to include new members in the policy at a cost of an additional premium.
2. You can choose to increase the sum assured when you include new family members in the policy to ensure enough coverage for an individual family member.
3. The policy no longer covers a dependent child as soon as he/she crosses the age limit specified in the policy document
4. It is suggested not to  include senior citizen parents in your existing family health plan, as it will significantly increase the premium

How Important are Health Insurance Family Plans?

When it comes to the family's health and safety, a health insurance policy for the family is a MUST. The rising incidences of pollution, sedentary lifestyle etc., are taking a toll on people's health and thereby making them more dependent on medical facilities for treatment. Additionally, increasing medical inflation in the country and resultant higher treatment cost has made Family Health insurance a need of the hour. 

 It helps you to avail the best possible treatment across cashless network providers of the insurance company and gives you a financial cushion when you need it the most.
