Options
A) Cover to new additional members: If PI gets married/ remarried during the term of the policy, the spouse and parents-in-law can be included in the policy within six months from the date of marriage / remarriage, but the cover shall start from the policy anniversary coinciding with or next following the date of inclusion. Enhanced premium shall be due from such policy anniversary.

Similarly, Any child born/legally adopted after taking the policy can also be covered from the next immediate policy anniversary date following the date on which the child completes the age of 3 months.

It will be only an advance payment in the event of hospitalization for any MSB defined in the surgeries listed under categories I & II and permissible under the policy conditions of the plan. This will be, however, subject to approval from the TPA (Third Party Administrator), and the advance amount will be adjusted from the final settlement of MSB claim amount.
This facility of advance payment could be availed by submitting your Bank Account details in the prescribed format. The amount of advance shall be credited to your bank account directly.


C) Term Assurance Rider: 
You, as PI, and your spouse may opt for Term Assurance as optional rider equal to the MSB SA. In case of unfortunate death, an amount equal to Term Assurance Sum Assured will be payable on death during the term for which Term Assurance Rider is opted for.
