Fracture Insurance Cover

As per a study that was published in the Indian Journal of Medical Research, more than 69% of individuals in Delhi who are aged between 38 to 68 years suffer from continuous bone loss and have a potential risk of fractures. These include hip, spinal, forearm, and shoulder fractures. The treatment of such fractures may vary depending on the severity of the fracture. In case the bone is completely deformed or broken, you may be hospitalised and require surgery. This may not only be physically excruciating but can also take a toll on your finances if you are not prepared for it beforehand. This is where the Fracture Cover from Care Health Insurance can help you. With this fracture insurance plan, you can get insurance coverage of up to ₹25,000 for the treatment of broken bones.
