A few of the things to keep in mind while purchasing a top-up plan are as follows:-

• Deductible:- Buying a top-up plan gives you more coverage and for getting access to that coverage the customer is required to reach his deductible amount. Usually, customers opt for a higher deductible as it comes with a lower premium. However, choosing the deductible amount is crucial and should be done according to the needs and requirements of the customer’s medical necessity.
• Benefits:- Every plan has many different benefits, however choosing a top-up plan that is aligned with your needs should be the customer’s priority. Knowing your needs and choosing the plan accordingly is foremost. Make sure the top-up you choose meets all your requirements and covers all the necessities giving you proper coverage is important.
• Coverage:- The coverage in every plan varies according to the age, plan, and medical concerns of a customer. Family floaters, individuals, or senior citizens have different coverages in their plans according to their needs and medical concerns.
• Sub-Limits:- Check the sub-limits of every coverage in the top-up plan before choosing the plan. The lesser the sub-limits the better for the customers as sub-limits may limit your coverage. Choosing a top-up plan with no sub-limits is always advised. Sub-limits can cause a policyholder to cover bills out-of-pocket.
• Waiting Period:- Every health insurance plan has a waiting period. After this period is over only then a customer get the coverage for their medical treatments. Always check the waiting period for the treatments while choosing the plan. The lesser the waiting period the better for the policyholder.
