Selecting the right family floater health insurance policy requires looking beyond just the annual premium cost. Important factors include claim settlement ratio (CSR), network hospital density in your city, room rent capping, and No Claim Bonus (NCB) protection.
Essential Health Insurance Checklist: 1. **Sum Insured**: Ensure a minimum sum insured of ā¹10ā15 Lakhs for metro cities to cover medical inflation. 2. **Pre-existing Disease Waiting Period**: Look for plans with 2-year or lower PED waiting periods. 3. **Daycare Treatments**: Verify coverage for modern surgeries and daycare procedures requiring less than 24 hours of hospitalization.
