Top Up Health Insurance: Extra Care Plus Policy

Cashless claim process (only applicable for treatment at a network hospital)

Cashless facility at network hospitals is available 24x7, throughout the year without any interruption in service. You must check the hospital list before getting admitted to the hospital. Hospitals that provide cashless settlement are liable to change their policy without notice. The updated list is available on our website and with our call centre. Bajaj Allianz Health Card along with a government ID proof is mandatory at the time of availing cashless facility.

When you are opting for cashless claims, the process is as follows:

• Get the pre-authorisation request form at the hospital’s insurance desk.
• Fill and sign it and have the treating doctor/hospital sign it too.
• The network hospital will fax the request to HAT.
• HAT doctors will examine the pre-authorisation request form and decide on cashless availability, as per the policy guidelines.
• Authorisation letter /denial letter/additional requirement letter is issued within 3 hours depending on the plan and its benefits.
• At the time of discharge, the hospital will share the final bill and discharge details with HAT and based on their assessment, final settlement will be processed.

Important points to note:

• In case of planned hospitalisation, register/reserve your admission as per the network hospital’s procedure for admission in advance.
• Admission at network hospital is subject to availability of a bed.
• Cashless facility is always subject to your policy terms and conditions.
• The policy does not cover the following : Telephone charges Food and beverages for relatives Toiletries The cost of the above services have to be borne by you and paid directly to the hospital before discharge.

• In case the treatment is not covered as per the policy terms and conditions, your claim- cashless or reimbursement, will be denied.
