Premium Waiver Benefit:

In Heart and Cancer Cover the plan continues even after the first pay-out for a Minor Condition Claim is made, without you having to pay any future premiums for the applicable coverage under which the claim is made.


Other Benefits

Increasing Cover Option:

You have the option of taking Increasing Cover under all the three plan options (Major Critical Illness Cover, Heart Cover, Cancer Cover) at proposal stage. Increasing Cover option helps you take care of growing medical expenses. Under this option, the initial Sum Assured increases by 10% (simple rate) every year starting from the first policy anniversary, until the first claim is made. The Sum Assured can go up to a maximum of 150% of initial Sum Assured.

If you have opted for Increasing Cover option at inception and there is claim during the Policy Term and the Policy is in-force you will receive a lump-sum payout basis the Increased Sum Assured.

For example, when you choose a Sum Assured of Rs. 20 lacs under Heart Cover for a term of 10 years and take the Increasing Cover option, starting from the first policy anniversary an additional 10% of initial Sum Assured will be added to your Sum Assured. Hence, by the 5th Policy year your Heart Cover would have increased from Rs. 20 lacs to Rs. 30 Lacs. (10% of Rs.20 lacs = Rs.2 lacs, Rs.2 lacs *5 years = Rs.10 lacs increase).
