United India Top Up Medicare Policy

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online

Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India)

 

Objective

This is a top-up plan that pays when medical expenses exceed the deductible amount. Deductible is the limit up to which the insured has to pay before the insurance company takes over.

 

Suited for

This policy is suitable for those already covered under a basic health insurance policy looking to increase the sum insured. A top-up plan can lower the impact of rising medical costs. Those who don't want to mark claims for small medical bills can also go for this policy.

 

What does it do?

This health insurance plan covers inpatient treatment if one is hospitalised for more than 24 hours. It covers medical expenses, room rent, boarding, surgeon fee, anesthetist fee and specialist fee up to the sum insured. It also indemnifies hospitalisation expenses incurred for donor in case of an organ transplant. Treatments that do not require 24-hour hospitalisation are covered under day care procedures.
Ambulance charges are payable up to Rs 2,500 per hospitalisation.

 

Pros

Premiums paid under this plan qualify for deduction under Section 80D of Income Tax Act. No pre policy medical check up is required up to 45 years of age.

 

Our View

This policy is suitable if there are chances of taking an expensive medical treatment. Otherwise, it is advised to go for the Super Top-up policy, another plan offered by United India where the deductible limit is calculated by summing up annual medical expenses. Though Super Top-up policies are slightly expensive, they offer better risk coverage.

Should you Roll Over 1 year Fixed Maturity Plans?

The period between January and March typically sees an uptick in the launch of fixed maturity plans, or FMPs. Not this year. Instead, fund houses are busy rolling over or extending the tenure of their one- year FMPs launched last year to three years. Investors in one- year FMPs have a choice. Either redeem units or roll over to three years. If you exit now, your gains will be added to your income and taxed in line with your individual slab rate of 10, 20 or 30 per cent. If you stay invested for two more years, you pay 20 per cent tax with indexation benefit. Yields have softened in the past few months on expectations of a rate cut. If the central bank continues its soft monetary stance, yields are likely to fall further. In such a scenario, it makes sense for investors, particularly those in the 30 per cent tax bracket, to roll over their investments and lock in at a higher yield now. In a surprise move, the Reserve Bank of India cut repo rate by 25 basis

Mutual Fund Review: IDFC Premier Equity Fund

  IDFC Premier Equity Fund, which falls under the presumed high risk group of mid- and small-cap schemes, can rely on astute and timely equity picks. These make it less vulnerable to fluctuations compared with others in the category   IDFC Premier Equity Fund is designed to invest in upcoming, but promising businesses available at cheap valuations, and hold on to these businesses until they reap desired returns.
