  1. Prior to taking treatment and/or incurring Medical Expenses for any Accidental Injury, at a Network Hospital, the Insured Person must call Us and request pre-authorization by way of the written form which the Company will provide. Waiver of this condition shall be considered in case of emergency hospitalization arising out of accidental bodily injury.
  2. After considering the Insured’s request and after obtaining any further information or documentation the Company have sought, the Company may if satisfied send to the Insured Person or the Network Hospital, an authorization letter. The authorization letter, the ID card issued to the Insured along with this Policy and any other information or documentation that the Company have specified must be produced to the Network Hospital identified in the pre-authorization letter at the time of Insured’s admission to the same.

If the procedure above is followed, the Insured Person will not be required to directly pay for the Medical Expenses raised out of Accidental Bodily Injury, in the Network Hospital that the Company is liable to indemnify under Accidental Hospitalization Expenses Section and the original bills and evidence of treatment in respect of the same shall be left with the Network Hospital. Pre-authorization does not guarantee that all costs and expenses will be covered. We reserve the right to review each claim for Medical Expenses and accordingly coverage will be determined according to the terms and conditions of this Policy. Insured Person shall, in any event, be required to settle all other expenses directly.

If you meet with any Accidental Bodily Injury that may result in a claim, then as a condition precedent to our liability:

a. You or someone claiming on your behalf must inform us in writing immediately and in any event within 30 days from the date of the accident and submit all documents to us within 30 days from the date of intimation.

*Note: Waiver of conditions (a) and (f) may be considered in extreme cases of hardship where it is proved to Our satisfaction that under the circumstances in which the Insured Person was placed, it was not possible for the Insured Person or any other person claiming on his/her behalf to give notice or file claim within the prescribed time limit.
