5 Ways your Health Insurance card benefits you

Digital payment modes are preferred nowadays over cash payments. It is mainly because of the sheer convenience and safety that cashless payment methods offer. From online shopping to banking, transactions can be done from the comfort of your mobile phones. Even payments of insurance premium can be done digitally. 

In fact, for emergency hospitalisation expenses, you no longer need to shell out money from your pocket. With cashless health insurance, your insurer pays your medical bills directly to the hospital. However, this facility is available only if you get treatment in a network hospital. 

To avail the cashless facility, you will be required to present your health insurance card that your insurer provides you at the time of buying the insurance policy.

Health Insurance Card is a card which serves as a proof that you have been covered under the health insurance policy you had purchased. It is an identification card that contains policy details such as the policy number, name of the insured person, type of policy, coverage amount, date of birth, etc.
