Stroke Insurance Cover

A stroke can be a serious health emergency that requires immediate hospitalisation. According to research, stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in India. Like most types of brain injuries, treatment for a stroke can be expensive. In fact, most stroke patients have to live with disabilities, forcing them to undergo long-term care. However, with the Group Care 360 Stroke Cover by Care Insurance on Bajaj Markets, you can breathe a sigh of relief. This plan is tailored to cover expenses incurred against stroke treatment.

Here are the key details of the Stroke Cover:

• Hospitalisation Expenses



Expenses incurred on stroke treatment up to ₹3 Lakh are covered under the Stroke Cover. This includes pre-hospitalisation expenses for up to 30 days before admission and post-hospitalisation expenses for up to 60 days after discharge.

• Treatment Expenses



The plan also takes care of the treatment costs like hospital room rent, doctor fees, ICU, medicines, transfusion, and tests.

• Doctors’ Fees and Medication



The doctor's consultation charges, as well as expenses incurred on medication, are covered under the plan up to the maximum sum insured.
