The spiraling medical expenses and with lifestyle diseases engulfing almost all, health insurance services saw their escalated emergence. In recent years, health insurance services in India have gained momentum and a number of health insurance providers have cropped up to cater to individuals and families alike. And the key objective behind the Health Insurance Services offered by health insurance providers is ‘health with happiness’ guarding the insured against medical costs that may be incurred as well as guiding him/her on the path of wellness, providing a double protection of prevention and cover.

Health Insurance service in India entails with it a number of benefits to the advantage of the insured. In general, a health insurance provider provides health insurance services related to consultation, hospitalisation and post-hospitalisation. It is networked with a number of hospitals across the country; few health insurance providers are tied up with international hospitals too enabling the insured to avail services in a foreign land if the need arises. The frequent traveler can get insured with a travel health insurance to avail double benefits – of health and of the inconveniences that may arise while on travel like loss of baggage/passport, hospitalization in a foreign country while on travel and so on. All health insurance providers do not include medical expenses of certain ailments and the middle-aged or above need to provide medical history proofs to get insured.
