Bajaj Allianz Extra Care - Top Up Health Insurance

Objective

This is a top-up health insurance policy where insurance company pays medical expenses in excess of a certain limit up to maximum sum insured. The limit is the deductible i.e. the amount which has to be borne by the policyholder or by his existing cover, before the insurance benefit actually kicks in. Deductible limit is applicable on each hospitalisation taken by insured person which means that deductible limit refreshes every time insured person is hospitalized as an inpatient within the policy term.

 

Suited for

This policy is suitable for any person who believes that existing insurance cover is inadequate to cover the rising costs of medical treatments. A person who does not have any medical insurance policy may also take this policy. The initial expenses up to threshold limit in this case will have to be borne by the insured person.

 

What does it do?

This health insurance plan covers hospitalisation expenses if treatment is taken as an inpatient. It covers medical expenses, room rent, boarding, nursing care, surgeon, anesthetist and specialist fees up to the sum insured. This policy also provides for ambulance charges upto maximum of Rs 3,000 per hospitalisation for transporting insured person from residence or place of accident to hospital and from hospital to residence.

 

Pros

It covers relevant medical expenses from 60 days prior and 90 days post hospitalisation.
This policy can be purchased online.

 

Cons

The deductible limit applies each time hospitalisation services are accessed.

 

Our View

This policy is suitable only if the chances of contracting a major illness, which would otherwise dent your financial resources, in future are high. Though this policy is meant to increase the existing insurance cover, the catch here is that deductible applies to every single claim. It will not come in picture till single claim crosses the threshold limit.

Debt Mutual Fund Dividends are Taxable

DDT is deducted when a non-equity fund declares dividends. Equity and balanced fund dividends are tax-free The AMC is correct to deduct the dividend distribution tax (DDT) as it is mandated by tax laws. DDT in mutual funds is deducted every time a non-equity fund declares dividends. Equity fund and balanced fund dividends are tax-free . It is possible that you have invested in a non-equity fund for the first time or have received the dividend under a non-equity fund for the first time. That is why this is the first occasion when you have come across DDT.   The rate at which non-equity schemes deduct DDT has also gone up after the July 2014 budget. This is due to a change in calculation methodology. Earlier, if the fund has to declare a dividend of R 100, it used to make a provision for R 128.3, paying R 28.3 to the taxman and distributing the balance to the investor. This allowed the investor to bear less tax since the effective tax rate was 22.07 per ce...

Avoid NFOs

  Don't get taken in by the flurry of new fund offers. You will be better off sticking to the tried and tested schemes.   For the past one year, to cash in on the bull run in equities, mutual fund houses have gone on a new fund offer (NFO) overdrive. But experts are unanimous in their advice: avoid NFOs . While past performance is not an indicator of how a fund will fare in the future, it does tell the investor how skilful the fund manager is. This crucial information is missing in an NFO. Not only is there no track record to judge an NFO by, many NFOs are similar to funds that already exist. If the new fund is similar to existing funds, you are better off investing in the latter. Around 67% of the new launches in 2014 were closed-end products. Investing in the NFO of a closed-end fund is doubly risky. In case the fund's performance is lacklustre, a closed-end fund does not allow you to exit. Even though closed-end funds are listed on the stock...
