Hi,
I am looking for buying health insurance policy (Family floater) from Max Bupa with sum assured of 50 lacs. However, there are multiple choices available in Max Bupa, namely - ReAssure, Health companion & Health Premia. Within Health Premia product, they are offering Gold plan & Platinum plan (with higher sum assured of 1 Cr). I am at loss on how to select the product which is optimum and which covers the most needs. (I am 53 & my wife is 49 year old. Two kids are 15 & 21 years old. Wife is on regular medication for Diabetes & Thyroid. I am told there will be some loading on premium because of Wife's PED but policy will get through.) Please guide.

Hello Mr. Lakhia,
First of all, we would like to apologize for missing a response here. We are working internally to ensure this does not happen ever again!
Choosing between these policies is like choosing car models - One is an old steady model with traditional benefits - Companion, Reassure is a relatively new plan with all new jazzy benefits, and Premia is the top-end model with the best, most comprehensive benefits possible in a plan. It entirely depends on you - what kind of a cover you are looking for, sir.
As mentioned, the best plan in these plans looks like - Health Premia - is a comprehensive, premium plan - It covers international coverage (excluding USA/Canada), Emergency Assistance services, Laser surgeries, Bariatric surgeries, Mental disorder treatment, select OPD Benefits, eConsultations, maternity, vaccination, new born baby covers - some of these are after an initial waiting period. The premium of this plan however will be a minimum 2X of the premium of Health Companion.
If we were confused, and in your place - we would go mid-way and choose Reassure. It has all the latest benefits available in other latest best selling products in the market - and the price is also fair compared to other players with similar products (It should be around 50% higher price than Companion, which is a relatively old plain vanilla plan - with out dated benefits)
Regards,
