Know How Optima Secure Lite Benefits Boost Your Health Cover?

my:Optima Lite, is the latest addition to our health insurance lineup, designed to deliver accessible and effective coverage. This new-age health insurance plan comes with an option to choose from two base sum insured – 5 lac & 7.5 lac. It is thoughtfully designed to ensure comprehensive health coverage for an adequate base sum insured.

How does it work?

For your preferred base sum insured plan, you get extensive coverage for hospital expenses and other benefits as mentioned in the plan.

We love the fact that you are choosing us to be your partner on your health journey. And, hence we would love to reward you for your trust and loyalty by offering a 50% increase in base cover at first renewal and a 100% increase post-2nd-year renewals irrespective of any claims made.

How does it work?

When Mr Sharma renews his Optima Secure Health Insurance Plan for 1 year, Plus Benefit increases his base cover of ₹10 lacs by 50% and in 2nd year by 100%, making it ₹15 lacs and ₹20 lacs respectively. Plus benefit and secure benefit together takes the total coverage to ₹30 lacs.

Optima Secure plan restores up to 100% of your base sum insured for subsequent claims, for any illness or accidental hospitalisation. This benefit comes in handy when you exhaust your existing sum insured due to one or several claims. 

How does it work?

Imagine a situation where Mr. Sharma claims partial or total ₹10 lacs base cover, it gets 100% restored, making it ₹30 + ₹10= ₹40 lacs. So, he does not have to limit his claims to ₹10 lacs base cover or ₹20 lacs secure benefit, he will get an additional ₹10 lacs as a restore benefit to settle claims.

It is the non-medical expenses that really end up burning a hole in your pocket. Well, we have got your back. Go cashless with our my:Optima Secure health plan which has an in-built coverage for listed non-payable items like gloves, masks, food charges, and other consumables during hospitalisation. Usually, these disposable items are not covered by insurance policies or offered as an optional cover at an additional cost. However, with this plan, all your expenses for 68 listed non-medical items that are commonly used during hospitalisation are covered at no extra premium.

How does it work?

During hospitalization, his non-medical expenses that add up to 10-20% of the total bill amount also get covered by Protect Benefit. With Optima Secure plan you can rest assured that as many as 68 non-medical expenses will be taken care of. Mr. Sharma won't have to shell extra pennies for these non-medical expenses. Items like disposables, consumables, and non-medical expenses such as gloves, food charges, diapers, belts, braces etc will all be covered under this plan.

Cost for advanced medical treatments or surgeries taken under general or local anesthesia completed within 24 hours are covered. The plan also covers all modern treatments and robotic surgeries excluding cosmetic & experimental procedures.
