    Look Beyond the Premium

    Common insurance questions

    Users commonly search for answers to questions like these. We mentioned here relevant and most queried questions to a detailed PolicySutra guide.

    Health insurance helps cover eligible healthcare expenses according to the policy's terms, conditions, limits and exclusions. The benefits available vary by policy.
    Term insurance is primarily designed to provide life cover for a specified period. Other life insurance products may have different benefit structures, including savings-related features. The actual benefits depend on the specific product and its terms.
    A waiting period is a specified period during which certain conditions, treatments or benefits may not be covered. The applicable duration and rules depend on the policy.
    Consider age eligibility, existing medical conditions, waiting periods, co-payments, exclusions, coverage limits, renewal terms and affordability. Verify the details against the specific policy documents.
    A co-payment is the specified share of an eligible claim that the policyholder must pay, according to the policy terms. Check when it applies and how it affects your potential out-of-pocket costs.
    Compare the features relevant to your needs, including coverage, limits, exclusions, waiting periods, deductibles, co-payments and claim conditions. Check the latest official policy documents before making a decision.
