This new section enables people to choose proper health insurance coverage simply by entering their age, who they want to buy the policy for (them or their entire family), and the amount of insurance cover they require.

Adajania, Editor – Personal Finance, Moneycontrol, says, “When it comes to premiums, we often feel that the cheapest policy is the best policy. That’s far from reality, as purchasing a health insurance without proper awareness can land you in trouble because of its exclusions that you may not be aware of. Our new tool dissects all these factors and gives the best policy suited for your age and requirements, with minimal inputs required from your side.”
