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.

Mutual Fund Review: Taurus Tax Shield

    Taurus Tax Shield has seen a turnaround in performance since 2007, but still remains a volatile offering… The fund has seen a turnaround in its performance since 2007 and has delivered impressively during market rallies since then. The portfolio is also more diversified. It contained its downfall to an average level in 2008 but is still one of the most volatile offerings in this category. Bold investors can look at this fund.   Strategy The fund manager invests across the market capitalisation and sectors. The selection of stocks is made on the basis of long-term business prospects and value creation. Fund Insight Launched in March 1996, the fund was a laggard with just two annual outperformances. Concentrated stock bets and high exposure to mid and small caps led to it being hit harder during market downturns. The number of stocks in the portfolio never exceeded 20 and it was not rare to see the top 5 holdings account for around 60 per cent of the portfolio. After b...

Use Mutual Fund SWPs for getting fixed payments

There's yet another cousin — the Systematic Transfer Plan ( STP ). In SIP, you invest a fixed sum of money at regular intervals (monthly/ quarterly) to buy some units of a mutual fund scheme. In SWP, as the name suggests, you do the opposite: You redeem some mutual fund units from your portfolio to get a fixed sum of money at regular intervals (monthly/quarterly/half year/yearly). In SIP, you get a higher numbers of units when the markets are down, and lesser in a buoyant market. In SWP, going by the product logic, you redeem higher number of units when the markets are do...

Health insurance guide - Part I

Insurance, by definition, is morbid. What if I die suddenly? What if my home caught fire? What if I had to undergo expensive medical treatment? What if something that I thought happened only to others befell me? Insurers, who work with large samples, calculate the probability of such an event and, hence, the possibility of them having to pay out a sum of money to mitigate, to the extent possible, the effects of that disaster. However, the possibility of you undergoing some kind of expensive medical treatment during your lifetime is far more likely than you dying suddenly or your house burning down. Given that costs at private healthcare facilities, where you are most likely to land up, is high, and, doubling every four years 10 months or so, the rest of your money life could easily go out of whack if you had to incur such expenses. Just 12 per cent of India's population is covered with some sort of health insurance. Pared to the bone, for a comparatively small price, health insu...
