I had 3 major surgeries so far . 1st when i was 26 , 2nd when i was 32 and 3rd i last year 2021 when i was 35. Suggestions - Corporate employees should always take the max benefit of health insurance. Also when change of company always continue the insurance . I had national insurance and they paid full amount always . I have personal insurance also of star and they cover most expenses 90%.

Attention - In case you'll be claiming your health insurance, make sure to choose a hospital that does not fraudulently claim excess amount from your insurance provider thereby reducing the overall cover that would be left for you in that year. Here is the example - Let's say A got admitted into a hospital for a surgery that costed 2 Lakh overall. Nowadays, everything being cashless, the hospitals generate a bill for such surgeries up to double the actual amount i.e 4 Lakhs and get it from insurance companies. Now ideally after the surgery, if A had a total cover of 5 Lakhs then he must be left with 3 Lakhs but that's not the case, they're only left with 1 Lakh. This scam is running wide open and one of my friends who supervises TPA in one such hospital introduced me to it.

You have taken health insurance and when you go for claim and if doctor says that the person has pre existing disease then will it be covered by insurance company? Best regards.
@diybankingwithamandeep59835 ай бұрын
Yes it will be covered bcoz the disease was not diagnosed before making this claim. Only that disease is considered as pre-existing which was already diagnosed at the time of buying the insurance policy. The idea behind this Clause is that the person buying insurance should not hide any already diagnosed disease at the time of buying the first policy hope I was able to help!

Thanks Mukul for your informative videos as always, I have been the ardent follower of yours and viewing every video related to finance and other important topics. I am having one issue as below: Though I am insured by my organization's health insurance and fortunately have never been hospitalized in my whole life but to be on safer side, I want to buy additional insurance as company plan is with restricted sum assured. But I have been denied the insurance plan by almost all companies (Tried with HDFC ergo, ICICI, Star health, Max Bupa, Navi health insurance and simply rejected or denied by them). Reason is I am having one genetic condition(not life threatening) due to which I am having disability condition in the legs, I read the IRDA paper on insurance on genetic issues and basis on this tried with all companies, mailed and spoke with them for giving insurance, but no success. Simple answer by the companies is, as per their underwriting team guidelines they cannot provide health insurance to me. You have been the content creator who present the details in depth and for the benefit of the people. Can you pls share 1 elaborated video giving details on how a tax payer person with disability can get the health insurance.
