Buy Critical illness Plan Online
 

Health insurance Plans are termed as  such insurance products which are devised to provide financial coverage  during medical emergencies. With the tremendous increasing medical research every individual aims to provide the best medical facility to his/her family members.  Buying and comparing  Health insurance plans makes this objective much easier. There are many variations to the health insurance plans, critical illness plan is one such variation added to the health insurance segment which can be bought as a standalone product too.  It would be interesting to compare the health insurance with the critical illness plan, although this should be understood that critical illness plan cannot be considered a replacement to the Health insurance plan. Low cost mediclaims are also widely adopted options which people opt for to minimize cost of the policy and maximize their returns.As the name suggests, health insurance plan covers the critical illnesses such as cancer, kidney transplant, coronary artery bypass, major organ failure, paralysis etc. These are the diseases generally covered under this plan, but the exact list of diseases covered might vary amongst different insurers.

When we talk about this plan, it cannot be considered alternative to the mediclaim or the health insurance policy.  In comparison to health insurance ,this plan has certain unique features or benefits. If we  talk about health insurance plan it provides cover in case of hospitalization, whereas the critical illness plan covers the expenses incurred both during the hospitalization and otherwise. Also, there is no precondition when reimbursing the expenses to provide for only the maximum of cost of treatment or the sum assured.  The critical illness gives the added benefit of covering all other extra costs incurred during the treatment of the disease.

 

Critical illness plan:critical

The number and type of diseases covered by the insurance company differs from company to company, hence a thorough study of what one needs is required before the purchase of any such plan.

This plan generally does not cover any pre existing diseases. Also, it does not cover any congenital diseases either. There is generally a clause of waiting period of 2 to 4 years depending on the insurer. Any disease detected during this phase which would require medical treatment cannot be claimed under this plan.

Critical illness plan also offers the maturity benefit in case the policyholder survives the term of the policy for a specified number of years after being detected with the critical illness.  In case the policyholder survives the number of years mentioned, there would be no such payment to the family or nominee.

There are two types of critical illness plans in case this plan has been bought to complement the existing health insurance cover. Accelerated plan and the non accelerated critical illness plan. Now, in case of a non accelerated critical illness plan the sum assured paid to the policyholder does not affect or reduce the sum assured offered under the base health insurance plan. Whereas for the accelerated critical illness plan, the amount paid as the critical illness cover reduces the base cover to be paid as and when required.

ULIP Review: ProGrowth Super II

  If you are interested in a death cover that's just big enough, HDFC SL ProGrowth Super II is something worth a try. The beauty is it has something for everybody — you name the risk profile, the category is right up there. But do a SWOT analysis of the basket, and the gloss fades     HDFC SL ProGrowth Super II is a type-II unit-linked insurance plan ( ULIP ). Launched in September 2010, this is a small ticket-size scheme with multiple rider options and adequate death cover. It offers five investment options (funds) — one in each category of large-cap equity, mid-cap equity, balanced, debt and money market fund.

Mutual Fund Review: HDFC Index Sensex Plus

  In terms of size, HDFC Index Sensex Plus may be one of the smallest offerings from the HDFC stable. But that has not dampened its show, which has beaten the Sensex by a mile in overall returns   HDFC Index Sensex Plus is a passively managed diversified equity scheme with Sensex as its benchmark index. The fund also invests a small proportion of its equity portfolio in non-Sensex scrips. The scheme cannot boast of an impressive size and is one of the smallest in the HDFC basket with assets under management (AUM) of less than 60 crore. PERFORMANCE: Being passively managed and portfolio aligned to that of the benchmark, the performance of the index fund is expected to follow that of the benchmark and in this respect, it has not disappointed investors. Since its launch in July 2002, the fund has outperformed Sensex in overall returns by good margins.    While every 1,000 invested in HDFC Index Sensex Plus in July 2002 is worth 6,130 now, a similar amount invested in Sensex then wo...
