Choosing the right health insurance is crucial, especially with medical costs going up every year. Government statistics reveal that a significant 83.7% of Indians use their own household income or savings to cover hospital bills, and more than 12% depend on loans or financial assistance from family and friends to manage these costs.
In India, these costs can jump by 12-14% annually. That's why it's important to think about health insurance policy as something you'll need for a long time, about 30-35 years, to make sure you're covered no matter what happens down the road.
In this article, you will discover the importance of health insurance and how Digit Insurance can help you meet the rising healthcare costs for yourself and your family. Think of it like that one friend who you know will always be there for you whenever you’re sick or even just feeling low.
