Introduction
_________________________________
An insurance is legal agreement between an insurer (insurance company) and insured
(individual), In which an insured receives financial protection from an insured receives
financial protection from an insurer for the losses he may suffer under specific
circumstances.
Under an insurance policy, the inured needs to pay regular amount of premiums to the
insurer. The insurer pays a predetermined sum assured to the insured if an unfortunate event
occurs, such as death of the life insured, or damage to the insured or his property.
India is currently one of the top three countries hardest afflicted by Covid-19. The country is
experiencing significant inflation, particularly medical inflation, and unemployment as a
result of the health crisis.
One of COVID-19's most significant issues is its high treatment cost, which can have a
negative impact on people's economic and mental health, particularly the poor and middle
classes. The increase underscores the fact that, in a country where insurance penetration was
below 4% in pre-covid days, more individuals are beginning to regard health insurance as
important as other essentials for survival. One of COVID-19's most significant issues is its

We've seen a sharp increase in the selling of comprehensive health insurance plans during
the last year. Prior to the Covid era, approximately 32% of individuals obtained
comprehensive insurance plans, but after being hit by one of the worst pandemics in history,
this percentage has risen to 55 percent.

• The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDA) instructed all
general and health insurance companies to offer short-term Covid specific health policies,
Corona Kavach and Corona Rakshak. Corona Kavach is a standard indemnity-based
health policy being offered by general and health insurers while Corona Rakshak is being
offered as Covid standard benefit-based health policy.

sufficient health insurance in place. Hospitals have witnessed bills crossing lakhs due to

There has been unexpected boom with inside the call for of claims because of
upward thrust in wide variety of deaths in Covid-19 pandemic.
This allows customers to get the most out of their insurance products and they start
to have far more faith in insurance for their financial well-being. In the year 2020,
this industry underwent a plethora of reforms in order to safeguard the greatest
number of people in India since it was the hardest hit this year owing to the Covid-
199. The changes were made so that the insured people could better manage their
health and remain sufficiently protected.
Following are the key developments made in the health insurance industry in the
year 2020:
In its dangerous effort to make good healthcare accessible to everybody, the "IRDAI"
directed all the insurers to start selling standard health insurance products that is
Arogya Sanjeevani from April 1st, 2020, in its guidelines released on January 2nd,
2020. The rational for introducing this was that the current plans are too complicated
for general people to sense. The commencement of a standard health insurance plan
has aided in simplifying the purchasing process and has made a significant part in
instilling great faith in consumers in this industry.
Since the start of the Covid- 19 pandemic in India in the month of March 2020, IRDAI
has constantly made efforts to address the crises through a multiple of steps to provide
maximum comfort to the consumers.
The inclusion of Covid-19 treatment under health insurance coverage was the first and
most significant change in the insurance sector following the pandemic. Pandemics are
typically not covered by the "health or life insurance policies". This was a good
development, considering treatment for covid-19 costs between Rs 2 Lakhs Rs 4
Lakhs for a 14 day hospital stay. People could receive effective treatment without fear
of financial hardship since the pandemic was covered by health insurance.
In addition, certain modifications were done to the underwriting rules for granting
health insurance plans to consumers. It was instructed to all insurers by the regulator
to provide "health insurance policies" to the consumers through "telemedical"
wherever feasible if a necessary physical medical exam could not be performed
considering the lockdown in the entire nation.
The regulator even permitted the "use of e-KYC" for policy recommencement or the
issuance of new policies to consumers. Customers were permitted to offer consent for
the issuance of a health policy by "video KYC or OTP in lieu of physical signatures".
This allowed people to stay at home and obey social distancing norms while still
receiving insurance for financial well-being.
Following the IRDAI's guidance, insurers launched COVID -19 health insurance plans
called "Corona Kavach and Corona Rakshak". Both of these were established to give
financial protection to persons with low incomes so that they could receive the finest
covid-19 treatment available.
consultation sitting at his/her home and get the OPD charges covered under the health
insurance policy.
Refurbished health insurance policies were released on October, 1st 2020, providing
consumers with broader coverage. Customers will benefit from the new plans since
they will cover more diseases and treatments at lower costs. To meet to the demands
and expectations of consumers, the definition of Pre- existing Diseases has been
altered. According to the new guidelines, any diseases/ailments identified by a
"physician 48 months" prior to the granting of health insurance would come under
PED. To guarantee that policyholders with
PED receive appropriate health insurance coverage, IRDAI has directed the insurers to
include permanent exclusions only with the customer's consent. Furthermore, insurers
cannot reject the claim made by a policyholder once the insured has paid the insurance
premium for consecutive 8 years.
This implies that, beginning with the 9th policy year, a customer's health insurance
claim will not be denied unless you commit fraud or make a claim for permanent
exclusion. A claim shall be settled or rejected within 30 days of receipt of the last
relevant document. In the event of a claim payment delay, the insurer will be obligated
to pay the policyholder an interest at a "rate of 2% "over the bank rate from the date of
receipt of the last relevant document to the date of payment of the claim.
In the midst of Covid-19 pandemic, the IRDAI has made an alteration that allows
consumers to pay their health insurance premiums in installments. The premium
frequency can be set by the insurer which can be monthly, half-yearly or quarterly.
The change will play a significant role in boosting affordability in the health
insurance sector.
27 | P a g e
❖ Product development: - In the wake of the pandemic there has been greater concern
and awareness about health, and enquiries about health insurance policies have
increased by 30-40%. The pandemic also provide an opportunity for insurance
companies to innovate and serve the enovoing needs of a more informed population.
Several insurance companies launched covid 19 insurance products in 2020. Other
companies may follow suit and introduce such products. These products tend to be
short term and carry fixed benefits, covering a fixed amount in excess of the
Hospitalization Schemes. The IRDA Sandbox has been use full at this time as many
companies approvals for risk cover in special situations.
a) Since details around COVID – 19 treatment and prognosis are still emerging.
insurance companies do not have data related to patient profiles, morbidity
rates, cost of treatment, etc. This data is required to underwrite the risk and
determine the premium for products specifically targeting this disease.
Companies are consequently their products.
b) Based on clinical research and in conjunction with the healthcare and pharma
industries, insurance companies should calculate the possibility of a long trail of
chronic diseases escalation which may require health insurers to reprice their
existing hospitalization products. As of Now , insufficient data may hinder such
research but collaboration between insurers and their actuaries and health care
professionals and institutions can create models which had not been attempted
until now.
❖ Finding :-
i. Opportunity for insurance companies and understand the customer point of view
towards health insurance, people had more awareness of health insurance.
ii. Customer and company depend heavily on their on their digital architecture.
iii. Majority of the companies were come up with Covid-19 plan which include in their
existing policies.
iv. In India, it was found that from survey majority of people having health insurance
policy but in rural areas people uneducated about health insurance policies.
v. People are willing to Purchase new health insurance policy for individually and
some people who don’t family but not all, there was some people who don’t know
about insurance policies.
vi. Majority of the people from survey purchase new health insurance policy for their
family.
vii. While Covid-19 has taught us many things, like basic hygiene factors or social
distancing, the one very important thing is that we should not ignore health-
insurance any further. Every family needs it.
