Hospital bills can get crazy expensive. One small surgery, and suddenly you're looking at a six-digit amount. That’s why health insurance exists — not just to save money, but to save you from stress.
With a good health insurance plan, you don’t have to think twice when someone in the family falls sick. You go to a hospital, get the right treatment, and most of the expenses are taken care of. No begging relatives for help. No wiping out your savings.
Types of Health Insurance People Usually Get:
- Individual Plan: Just for you. Good if you're single or want something personal with more coverage.
- Family Plan: One policy that covers everyone at home — spouse, kids, even parents sometimes. Makes sense if you're married.
- Group Plan: Usually given by companies to their employees. Basic, but better than nothing.
What You Should Know (No Jargon)
- Cashless Hospitals: If it’s on the insurer’s list, you won’t need to pay anything upfront.
- Pre & Post Care: Tests before admission and follow-ups after discharge are usually covered too.
- Tax Benefit: You can save tax under Section 80D. It’s a bonus, not the main reason though.
- Coverage: Depends on the plan. Some cover maternity, ambulance, room rent, and even daily allowance.
In simple words, health insurance helps when life throws medical surprises at you. It won’t prevent illness, but it’ll make the treatment smoother — and a lot less painful on your wallet.
