Gurgaon, also known as Gurugram, is a rapidly expanding city in Haryana. It lies just around 30Km from the national capital.

With major banking and financial operations, it is considered a major satellite city of Delhi. Today, more than 300 companies of the Fortune 500 list maintain offices in Gurgaon. (1)

Still, the city suffers from common health hazards, pollution being number one. In a 2018 report, it was outlined that Gurgaon is the world’s most polluted city, with air quality index 17 times worse than the safe range. (2

This, along with other factors, has driven the need for quality health insurance in Gurgaon.

Things to know when buying a Health Insurance in Gurgaon

Which Zone Does Gurgaon Belong to?

Gurgaon is part of the National Capital Region, which means that healthcare expenses tend to be high in this part. Most health insurers categorise the city into Zone A, leading to higher premium rates than in Zone B and Zone C areas. 

Still, you must buy health insurance in Gurgaon, regardless of the policy pricing. Failure to opt for such coverage can leave your finances vulnerable during a medical emergency.

At Digit, we have two zones: Zone A (Greater Hyderabad, Delhi NCR, Greater Mumbai) and Zone B (Rest of India). You get an additional discount on premium if you are based in Zone B. Not just that, we have No zone-based co-payment. 

Why Is Insurance Important in Gurgaon?

As stated previously, Gurgaon is one of the most polluted cities in India. With the lack of clean air to breathe, residents often start developing respiratory diseases during their lifetimes. From asthma to cancer, these conditions can force you to seek treatment at hospitals.

Apart from the poisonous air, Gurgaon is also known for its high road accident rates. Between January and June 2019, 235 people lost their lives in road accidents in the city (3). Health insurance in Gurgaon can give you a fighting chance if you are involved in such devastating mishaps.

Which Policy should You Opt for?

This is a tricky question to answer, especially because the answer is different for each policyholder. Depending on your individual and family needs, you must look for the right insurance plan.

Always consider the sum insured, inclusions and exclusions before choosing any policy. While premiums should also be a determining factor, relying solely on this can compromise the safety offered by your policy.

Benefits of Purchasing Health Insurance in Gurgaon

Gurgaon residents can look forward to the following benefits from their medical insurance plan:

  • Hospitalisation Cover – You need to bear a considerable sum as hospitalisation expense whenever you are admitted to one such facility. With a health insurance policy, you can claim this amount from your insurer instead.
  • Cumulative Bonus – If you enjoy a claim-free term, your insurer will award you with cumulative bonuses. Use the bonus to increase your policy’s sum insured upon renewal without affecting the policy premiums.
  • Critical Illness Cover – Some conditions, such as cancer and heart conditions, are more serious than other diseases. Health insurance will help you claim hospitalisation in these cases as well.
  • Tax Benefits – Do you want to reduce your income tax liabilities? Well, with a health insurance plan, you can do the same under Section 80D of the ITA. 
  • Peace of Mind – Perhaps the greatest benefit is that insurance policies keep your mind at ease because you already have a backup financial plan to cover emergency medical expenses.
  • Regular Health Check-Ups – Health insurance allows you to undergo a complimentary health check-up once each year (on successful renewal only). 

You can also claim your policy if you are diagnosed with Covid-19 and require hospital treatment.

Disclaimer: The benefits largely depend on the insurance policy you pick. Therefore, check the terms and conditions carefully to assess just what is covered and what is not.

Regardless of the kind of policy you choose, it is vital to buy health insurance in Gurgaon. During emergencies, such plans can save your life and help you afford quality treatment.
