amount it will pay towards the room rent. Mostly, this limit is defined as a percentage of sum insured.
As an example, a 1% (of Sum Insured) per day cap for a normal room in a policy with a sum insured of INR 3 lakh
means that the insurer will only pay INR 3,000 per day towards room rent. In other words, you would be eligible to stay
in a room with a tariff of up to INR 3,000 per day.
If you choose a room with higher tariff, the insurer will not pay, and you will pay the difference. But that’s not all. You
Room don’t only pay the difference in the room rent alone, but the associated difference in cost of doctors’ fees, nursing fees
Rent and surgery costs. This is so because the cost of medical procedures is linked to the room that you choose. So, for the
same line of treatment a person with a twin-sharing room will pay less compared to a person with a single room.
Your policy eligibility is: INR 6,000 per day for normal room category and actuals for ICU/CCU/NICU room category per
day.
Employee, spouse and 2 children:

• Normal room category limit : INR 6,000 per day


• ICU/CCU/NICU room rent limit : Actuals

• REASONABLE AND CUSTOMARY CHARGES are not payable.
Reasonable charges means the charges for services or supplies, which are the standard charges for the specific
provider and consistent with the prevailing charges in the geographical area for identical or similar services, taking into
account the nature of the Illness / Injury involved.

In India, there is no regulation that places a limit on how much a hospital can charge for a particular service. Hence, a
hospital can charge exuberantly for a treatment. To protect themselves from having to pay unreasonable and
excessive hospital bills, insurance companies have ‘Reasonable and Customary Clause’ in their policies. It is the
amount of money that health insurer determines as the acceptable range of payment for a specific health-related
service or medical procedure.

In case of a planned treatment, it is advised to check the charges of the hospital before getting admitted. Depending
on the type of room member select, the hospital will give an estimate of the charges that will apply. Member can then
Important Notes
compare the charges with similar grade hospitals.

If member feels that hospital is over charging | Negotiate and work it out with the first hospital:

Member can speak to the management and ask for a revision in the estimate. Let them know about the standard
charges for similar hospitals nearby. If they don’t negotiate and member still want to get treated there, he/she will have
to be prepared to pay the balance out of his/her own pocket.

As an alternate option, member can check more reasonable hospital of a similar grade:

After comparing the hospital rates, member will find alternate ones that provide the same treatment at much more
reasonable rates. If member is comfortable with any of the above can opt for it.
