Before opting for health insurance, you must consider certain features. Firstly, you must consider the number of people that you wish to provide coverage under the policy. You must also check whether the policy offers cashless hospitalisation benefits or not.
Other than that, you should also see whether there are any co-payment clauses or not. Before availing a health insurance policy, you should also check the premium that you have to pay. You can do so by using the health insurance premium calculator. Here are some facts that you must keep in mind while buying health insurance in Thrissur:
Diseases caused by bacteria and viruses are very common. Multiple cases of Anthrax, West Nile fever, Norovirus, and Black Fever are proof of it. Moreover, groundwater and river pollution in Thrissur also results in water-borne diseases like cholera, diarrhoea, etc.
Mosquito-borne diseases like dengue, malaria and chikungunya are also reported in this city. Therefore, if you are a resident of Thrissur, getting a health insurance policy might be a good idea.
Thrissur is a Zone C city. Therefore, the treatment costs are comparatively lower than Zone A and B cities. If you opt for health insurance, you will have to pay a lower premium than Zone A and B cities.
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.
Although the medical expenses in Thrissur might be lower than that of Zone A and B cities, it is not affordable for the common man. For example, the cost of normal delivery in general hospitals might be as high as Rs. 43,700, and the cost of a private room might go up to Rs. 52,200 in Thrissur. On the other hand, 24-hour treatments like Coronary Angiography in a general ward might cost around Rs. 9,200. To save yourself from incurring sudden expenses during financial emergencies, it is imperative to get a health insurance policy.
Here are some of the benefits of purchasing a health insurance policy:
Reimbursement for annual complimentary health check-ups to assess your overall health.
Tax benefits under section 80D for paying a premium for your health insurance policy.
Daily Hospital Cash for meeting your daily expenses during hospitalisation.
