If you have a health insurance policy, you are entitled for a complete free health check-up once every four years. This facility is provided to those who do not raise any claims during the period of four years. But there are health Insurance companies who are offering this facility every year.Most policy holders do not avail the facility of free health check-up. There are myriad reasons behind this.

Some people do not even know about this option and there is no chance that they go for a health check-up. At the same time, there are people who know about such options but do not go for them.

The reason is apparent – they fear that by undergoing a health check-up, the health insurance company may come to know about some health disorder and that can be a reason to increase health insurance premium. But actually there is nothing like that. Health insurance companies clearly specify that they do not increase the amount of premium if a policy holder is found with a new health related disorder in his check-up report.

According to health insurance companies, health check-ups can rather help a policy holder to know about his health and well being, and in the process, he can also avail of additional riders that may be necessary for covering any modalities in the future.

How to avail free health check-up?

It is very easy to avail the facility of complete free health check-up. All you need to do is to call up the customer care centre of your health insurance company and let them about your plans.

Most of the times, customer care executives are able to provide you all the related details. If not, you can expect a call-back from the insurance company.Once the health insurance company acknowledges and accepts you request, you are provided the complete schedule with details of health center, location, date and timings.You are also given an authorization letter by the health insurance company. Generally, this letter is send via email. At the other end, the health care center is also given prior intimation about your visit. Thus, when you visit the health center, they already have your details in place.

What is reimbursement procedure?

If you follow the due process, then you can expect a cashless health check-up. By going through the health insurance company's plans, it is ensured that you go to an empaneled health center, and therefore, the entire check-up is cashless.The bill is settled by the health insurance company as per the per-determined rates. A policy holder does not even have to look into this matter.

What all is covered under the check-up?

The health check-up essentially covers blood pressure check, chest x-ray, lipid profile, blood and urine tests. A policy holder can also get the other tests done at additional costs. The best part is that you could get better rates as most times health insurance companies have tie-ups with diagnostic centers.

All about "Derivatives"

What are derivatives? Derivatives are financial instruments, which as the name suggests, derive their value from another asset — called the underlying. What are the typical underlying assets? Any asset, whose price is dynamic, probably has a derivative contract today. The most popular ones being stocks, indices, precious metals, commodities, agro products, currencies, etc. Why were they invented? In an increasingly dynamic world, prices of virtually all assets keep changing, thereby exposing participants to price risks. Hence, derivatives were invented to negate these price fluctuations. For example, a wheat farmer expects to sell his crop at the current price of Rs 10/kg and make profits of Rs 2/kg. But, by the time his crop is ready, the price of wheat may have gone down to Rs 5/kg, making him sell his crop at a loss of Rs 3/kg. In order to avoid this, he may enter into a forward contract, agreeing to sell wheat at Rs 10/ kg, right at the outset. So, even if the price of wheat falls ...

WHAT ARE PENSION PLANS?     In a pension plan, you are required to pay premiums for a certain number of years and once you reach the retirement age, the insurer returns a lump sum amount that can be then used to purchase an annuity or stream of income for the rest of your life....

ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund

 ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund scheme seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation and current income by investing in a portfolio that is investing in equities and related securities as well as fixed income and money market securities. The approximate allocation to equity would be in the range of 60-80 per cent with a minimum of 51 per cent, and the approximate debt allocation is 40-49 per cent, with a minimum of 20 per cent. An impressive show in the last couple of years has propelled this fund from a three-star to a four-star rating. The fund has traditionally featured a high equity allocation, hovering at well over 70 per cent, which is higher than the allocations of the peers. But in the last one year, the allocation has been moderated from 78-79 per cent levels to 66-67 per cent of the portfolio. ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund appears to practise some degree of tactical allocation based on market valuations. Within equities, well over two-thirds of the allocation is parked i...

Tax Planning: Income tax and Section 80C

In order to encourage savings, the government gives tax breaks on certain financial products under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. Investments made under such schemes are referred to as 80C investments. Under this section, you can invest a maximum of Rs l lakh and if you are in the highest tax bracket of 30%, you save a tax of Rs 30,000. The various investment options under this section include:   Provident Fund (PF) & Voluntary Provident Fund (VPF) Provident Fund is deducted directly from your salary by your employer. The deducted amount goes into a retirement account along with your employer's contribution. While employer's contribution is exempt from tax, your contribution (i.e., employee's contribution) is counted towards section 80C investments. You can also contribute additional amount through voluntary contributions (VPF). The current rate of interest is 8.5% per annum and interest earned is tax-free. Public Provident Fund (PPF) An account can be opened wi...

Fortis Mutual Fund

Fortis Mutual Fund, a relatively new player, it is still to prove its case and define its position in the industry. In September 2004, it came onto the scene with a bang - three debt schemes, one MIP and one diversified equity scheme. And investors flocked to it. Going by the standards at that time, it had a great start in terms of garnering money. Mopping up over Rs 2,000 crore in five schemes was not bad at all. The fund house has not been too successful in the equity arena, in terms of assets. Though it has seven equity schemes, it is debt and cash funds that corner the major portion of the assets. Most of the schemes are pretty new, and the two that have been around for a while have a 3-star rating each. The last two were Fortis Sustainable Development (April 2007), which received a rather poor response, and Fortis China India (October 2007). Fortis Flexi Debt has been one of the better performing funds, after a dismal performance in 2005. It currently has a 5-star rating. None ...
