- On the other hand, the Arogya Rakshak policy pays a lump sum benefit equal to the sum insured irrespective of actual medical treatment costs.
- Individuals can insure themselves (as the principal insured), their spouse, all children, and parents under one policy.
- The policy is available for principal insured/spouse/parents aged between 18 and 65, and children of age 91 days to 20 years.
- The cover period available for principal insured/spouse/parents is up to 80 years, while the same is available for children up to 25 years only.
