Hello Aayush,
You must claim hospitalization separately. You should submit all papers, discharge summary, receipts, reports, etc up to the discharge as a hospitalization claim. You must not wait to collect all post-hospitalization bills/receipts and documents.
Since post-hospitalization expenses are usually covered for a period of 60 days after the hospitalization, you must accumulate all bills, receipts, documents for medicines, followup doctor consultations, physiotherapy sessions, diagnostic tests required after the hospitalization and submit a separate post-hospitalization claim later.
Hope this helps.
