About Individual Health Insurance
A health insurance is an insurance that offers coverage for medical expenses of the policyholder in case he/she is hospitalized or has to undergo expensive medical treatment. General provisions under a health insurance plan include cashless treatment at network hospitals, reimbursement of hospitalization charges and coverage for pre and post hospitalization expenses.
Types of Health Insurance
Insurance needs for individuals may vary from one another. For instance, some individuals are prone to certain illnesses due to hereditary conditions or lifestyle choices. Thus, they might require extra provisions under their health plan. No matter what the type of policy is, never compromise on the mediclaim policy. As a result, insurance providers offer different plans such as -
- Individual Health Insurance Plan
- Family Health Insurance Plan
- Senior Citizen Health Insurance Plan
- Critical Illness Insurance Plan
