    Insurance companies provide different types of coverage to suit every individual\u2019s varying needs. There are specific health insurance policies for senior citizens, women, critical illnesses<\/strong><\/a>, individuals, families, and so on. The coverage of these policies differs from one another. Decide which type of insurance you prefer to go with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Go for an insurer that has a good claim settlement ratio <\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      A very important aspect that a lot of policyholders miss out on is to check the claim settlement ratio of the insurance company. This is because you should choose an insurance company that has an excellent record of settling claims on time without any hassles. So, the higher the claim settlement ratio of the insurer, the better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Check the insurer\u2019s list of cashless hospitals<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        There are two ways in which you can use your health insurance policy. One is to pay for all the medical expenses yourself and then use your policy to get reimbursed. The second one is to simply avail cashless hospitalisation<\/strong><\/a> treatment where you do not have to pay anything. The latter option is naturally the one that is much more convenient. However, it is also important to ensure that you have chosen an insurer that has tied up with reputed hospitals for cashless treatment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        1. Inquire about the co-payment terms <\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Many policyholders prefer to opt for co-payment while buying their policies. A co-payment feature means that you as a policyholder will have to pay a certain amount of the hospitalisation bill from your account, and the rest will be taken care of by the insurer. This helps in lowering the premiums of your insurance plan. So, if you are interested in opting for co-payment, you should inquire about the co-payment terms of the insurer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
