Ravi works as a manager in one of the most popular banks. He has a loving family and he lives with his parents (aged 59 and 55 years), his wife and his 2 kids. Life had been going smoothly for them until Ravi’s father suffered a heart attack and had to be admitted to the hospital. The doctor recommended a by-pass surgery, which would cost them around 5 lakhs.

Ravi checked with the insurance company only to realize that they had already used 4 lakh rupees out of their total sum assured of 5 lakhs when their mother underwent a knee replacement surgery earlier this year. Ravi was devastated; with their health insurance plan already exhausted, the hospital bills wouldwreak havoc on his finances.

If you have a big family with ageing parents, spouse and kids, it is advisable to have individual insurance plans for each of them or have a separate insurance for your parents. The premium you need to pay might be higher but you will be able to avoid situations like Ravi’s and everyone will get their share of health coverage.
