Verdict: Care Insurance Care

This plan is easy on the pocket and provides comprehensive coverage. In addition to hospitalization and related expenses, it covers non-medical expenses such as gloves, oxygen masks, etc, as well as OPD expenses, which are day-to-day expenses for medicines, tests, consultations, etc. It also provides you an option to automatically increase your sum covered in accordance with the previous year’s inflation. On the flip side, however, the plan does not allow you to pay your premiums monthly. Additionally, according to our research, the insurer has received a higher number of claim settlement and policy purchase complaints. This implies that the insurer has a poor track record in terms of both purchases and claims.
