This unique health plan offers a restore benefit that automatically reinstates the basic sum insured in case it is exhausted within the policy year. If the policyholder uses up the entire sum insured and falls ill even if it is for the same illness or condition during the same year, the company will restore 100 per cent basic sum insured. This ensures that the policyholder has requisite coverage at all times and reduces the need for multiple policies.

Towards this, we present Health AdvantEDGE, which addresses healthcare and wellness requirements of the customers and offers timely and necessary support during their time of need. We are confident that our health offering will adequately prepare individuals and families against uncertainties surrounding medical exigencies and rising healthcare expenses.’’

Further, this health insurance plan comes with wellness benefits and value-added services for the convenience of policyholders to address their wellness needs and also get rewarded for it. Under the wellness program, the policyholder gets credited with reward points for inculcating healthy habits. The reward points can be redeemed to avail of a discount on the policy premium or a concession on medical bills or consultation fees among others.

To further enrich customer engagement and experience, the Bharti AXA Wellness Cuppa portal has been launched for its esteemed customers. Through the wellness portal and app, the policyholders can avail the entire gamut of wellness features and services in one place. Apart from health rewards, some of the features also include video/teleconsultation, pharmacy, and diagnostic services, online chat with doctors, doctor’s appointment, doctor on call, and medical second opinion.

“We understand the requirements of our customers in this fast-paced world. Bharti AXA Health AdvantEDGE addresses the array of consumers who are looking beyond health insurance products that offer claim only against hospitalization expenses. With this product, we offer wellness benefits with options to customize the offering that will help them create the plan that suits them best in times of illness as well as on their journey of wellness. With customer-centricity being at the core of all our initiatives, we constantly strive to innovate to enrich our customer offerings and provide superior products and services,’’ Mr. Srinivasan added.

It comes with 60 days pre and 90 days post-hospitalization cover as well as a wide range of sum insured from Rs 2 lakh to Rs 3 crore with cashless facility and seamless claim procedure.
