Learn all about how a top up health insurance cover works, its benefits, and its ins and outs with this comprehensive list of frequently asked questions and their answers. 1.      What is Extra Care Policy and what are its benefits? It is a top up health insurance over your existing health/hospitalization policy.  This policy can be taken as add-on cover to your existing hospitalization policy.

In case you have an existing policy, then the sum insured in this base policy is the deductible limit. For example: If you have a medical insurance policy with 3 Lac sum insured, then 3 Lac would be the deductible limit. The Extra Care policy would be triggered when the 3 Lac would get exhausted.

      Dear Ranjeet,We want to state that as per Policy Holders Interest Act under IRDA norms, free look cancellation has two preconditions under clause 2:
      Free look cancellation request needs to justify the reason as to which policy term and condition in the policy document you are not satisfied with, based on which you need to get the free look cancellation initiated.
      Financial crisis/Personal reason is not acceptable for cancellation of the policy.

      Thanks & Regards,
