Tata AIG General Insurance Company has introduced Medicare, a health insurance plan in three variants- Medicare, MediCare Protect and MediCare Premier.
The policy comes with a global cover up to the full sum insured value, which allows customers a choice to avail treatment anywhere in the world, provided the diagnosis was made in India and the insured travels abroad for treatment. The restore benefit cover automatically refunds the basic sum insured upon exhaustion of the sum insured and accrued cumulative bonus, during the policy period. The plan also covers bariatric surgery for treatment of obesity and weight control and provides a cumulative bonus of 50 per cent of the sum insured for every claim free year accumulating up to a maximum of 100 per cent of sum insured. In addition, ‘MediCare’ offers a sum insured option of up to Rs 20 lakh coverage with no sub-limit for any diseases, no co-pays and no room rent capping.
