Chola MS Top Up Healthline

Objective

A top-up policy that becomes active only with medical expenses above a certain limit. It is meant to be bought as an additional policy to take care of hefty claims.

 

Suited for

This policy is more effective for those who already have a basic health insurance cover and wish to increase the protection further. Those who do not hold any health insurance policy may also go in for this policy if they can pay small medical bills that are not covered by the top-up policy. This policy is available for both individual and family on a floater basis.

 

What does it do?

It is a top up plan that gets activated only when the claim crosses the deductible limit. A deductible is that portion of claim which has to be borne either by an existing policy or by the policyholder himself. In this plan, deductible limit applies afresh each time insured person is hospitalized during the policy term. For instance, an insured accesses hospitalisation services twice during a policy term. For the first time the total medical expenses amounted to Rs 2 lakh and Rs 2.5 lakh during second hospitalisation. If the deductible limit on his policy was Rs 3 lakh, the policyholder will not receive insurance benefit of this policy as the admissible claim expenses were below the deductible limit each time. This policy offers a wide range of deductible starting from as low as Rs 30,000 up to Rs 5 lakh.
It covers hospitalisation expenses including doctor's fee, nursing, room charges up to the daily limit stated in the policy document, ICU charges, oxygen, OT charges, anesthesia and other expenses incurred as an inpatient. This plan can be bought as an individual or as a family floater policy.

 

Pros

Premiums paid under this plan qualify for deduction under Section 80D of Income Tax Act.
Policyholder can escape from hassle of paying premiums annually by selecting a higher policy term of 2 or 3 years.
It provides for lifelong renewals as there is no policy ceasing age.
There is no need to undertake pre-policy medical check up upto 55 years of entry age.

 

Cons

There is capping on room rent expenses.
Deductible applies afresh on each claim.

 

Our View

Add-on plans are not intended to duplicate the existing cover, these plans are rather meant to pay for higher claims which are beyond the reach of basic insurance plans. Instead of buying another insurance policy, a top up is recommended if your current insurance cover seems inadequate. The only constraint to this product is that threshold limit applies to every single treatment undertaken as an inpatient in a hospital. In contrast, there are certain policies in the market that cover each hospitalisation after the expenses of previous hospitalisation(s) put together exceed threshold. Such top-up policies have an edge over the policies where deductible applies on each claim.

Lump Sum or SIP?

Invest Mutual Fund Online     You have a lump sum in hand and you wish to invest in equity funds. However, you have heard a lot of talk about investing in equity funds through Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) because they help average costs, ensure you do not ill-time the market, and help you invest in small sums, besides giving you many other advantages. So, should you invest the money you have in hand in one go, or let it remain in your bank account and then do an SIP? There is no harm in investing a lump sum amount. For all you know, compounding, over the long term, could work better with lump sum. However, make sure you fulfill all of these three criteria if you want to invest in one go. Else, SIP is the way to go. #1: You invest for the long term According to past data, ideally, if you have a time frame of 12 years or more, you can consider lump sum investing (provided you satisfy the other two conditions that follow). So, what is the sanctity behind 12 years? Is it because only...

Mutual Fund Review: Reliance Regular Savings Balanced

Reliance Regular Savings Balanced fund has shown great resilience during market crash After a shaky start, this fund has established itself as a strong contender in this space. In the past three years it has ridden the market well by not only delivering during the market run-ups but also displaying resilience during the crash. In 2008, it witnessed the second lowest fall among its category and last year it was amongst the top three performers with a return of 76 per cent (category average: 61%).   The poor underperformance in 2006 can well be credited to the low equity allocation of the fund, which stood at just over 10 per cent for only four months that year. Though the fund has the leeway to go up to 75 per cent in equity, it has never touched that limit. In fact, it has exceeded 70 per cent in just five months in its entire history. During the crash of 2008, the fund managers had no problem going right down to 54 per cent (equity exposure). Fund managers Omprakash Kukian and A...

Why credit history is critical?

Will you need a loan to buy a car or a house? Do you know why some people get their loans sanctioned quickly without any hassle, whereas others find that their approval is delayed or their application is rejected? If you want a loan, you will need to work to build a solid credit history because this can have a bearing on the ease with which you get loans. Read on to learn more about what is a credit history and how to build a good credit score. What is a credit history? Your credit history is a way of tracking your credit behaviour and habits — basically it shows how disciplined and regular you are when it comes to repaying your dues on loans that you have taken. It will show a complete record of your past borrowing and repayment record including details about any late payments or if you have defaulted on a loan. This track record is readily accessible to lenders and is used by them to when reviewing your loan application. Borrowers who have historically had a bad record of managing...

Stock Market Concepts: Derivatives and taxation

DERIVATIVES refer to an instrument, which derives its value from the value of something else — that is, an underlying asset. In India, the derivatives space has traditionally been the playground for large institutional investors who use it for hedging or for speculative activities. However, with time, we have seen a steep augmentation in the per capita income of an average Indian. Consequently, the appetite for investment in alternative instruments has transcended into the need to explore untested territories, and one of the most lucrative of all the available options, is the derivatives. Taxation Of Derivatives: Let's have a sharp overview of how taxability impacts the dealings in futures and options: Futures: Since, there is no transfer or delivery of the underlying asset in case of futures, the income or loss from it cannot be taxed under the head "capital gains". Therefore, depending upon the fact whether the assessee is a trader or an investor, the head of income...
