HEALTH PROTECTION PLUS

LIC launches a unique Health Insurance Plan “HEALTH PROTECTION PLUS”

Health is a major concern on everybody’s mind these days. With sky rocketing medicalexpenses, the possibility of any illness leading to hospitalisation or surgery is a constant source of anxiety unless the family has actively provided for funds to meet such an eventuality. Financial planning regarding Health is, therefore, very important as any emergency might force one to dip into one’s savings which would have been reserved for other goals. The purpose of health insurance is to help you in any such a situation. Most families rarely provide for health insurance, and even if they do, it is grossly inadequate.

LIC has always been sensitive to the changing needs of the Society and has respondedsuitably by introducing matching products to suit these needs. Its latest offering on Health front is “Health Protection Plus”.

LIC’s Health Protection Plus plan is a unique long term health insurance plan that offers health insurance covers for the entire family (husband, wife and the children) – Hospital Cash Benefit (HCB) and Major Surgical Benefit (MSB) along with a ULIP component (investment in the form of Units) that is specifically designed to meet Domiciliary Treatment Benefit (DTB) / Out Patient Department (OPD) expenses for the insured members.

Hospital Cash Benefit (HCB) is a daily benefit payable in case of hospitalization . It can range from Rs.250/- to Rs.2500/- for the Principal Insured (the person who proposes for insurance). For the Spouse or the children, the maximum amount of HCB is Rs.1500/-. The amount of daily benefit doubles in case of hospitalization in ICU. The IDB (Initial Daily Benefit) is applicable during the first year of risk cover. The amount of daily HCB willincrease @ 5% simple p.a. every year on policy anniversary until it hits a cap of 1.5 times the initial benefit.

Major Surgical Benefit (MSB): In the event of the insured undergoing one of the major surgeries defined in the the policy, a lump sum benefit (regardless of the actual costs incurred) equivalent to the percentage of the sum assured mentioned against that surgery will be payable. The sum assured for major surgical benefits will be 200 times of the HCB you choose.

Domiciliary Treatment Benefit (DTB): The Principal Insured can claim an amount equivalent to the actual expense he or she has incurred in respect of any domiciliary treatment or to meet the medical expenses incurred over and above the hospital cash/major surgical benefits in respect of either oneself or the others insured under the policy.

Both HCB and MSB covers are available subject to a waiting period from thecommencement of the risk cover – in respect of each insured member: No death insurance cover is available under the plan.

All eligible existing family members are to be covered at the beginning (proposal stage) itself. New members can however be added under certain specified conditions.

Modes of Payment allowed are: Yearly, Half-Yearly, & Monthly (ECS Mode only). The premiums allocated to purchase units will be strictly invested in a Health Protection Plus Fund (Income and Growth – Low Risk).

One of the important features of the Plan that makes it doubly attractive is thatthe premiums paid under the policy are eligible for Tax Rebate under Section 80(D)of Income Tax Act, 1961.
