Why NRIs and Corporate Employees Need Personal Health Insurance

✓ For Corporate Employees: The "Job Loss" Risk

Your corporate cover is tied to your employment. Here is why it is not enough:

• Coverage Ends with Employment

  If you switch jobs, retire, or face a layoff, you and your family lose coverage instantly. Buying a new policy later may be expensive or restricted due to age or new illnesses.

• Serve Waiting Periods Early

  Personal policies have waiting periods (2-4 years) for pre-existing diseases. Buying one while you are young and employed ensures these are served by the time you actually need the cover post-retirement.

• Insufficient Sum Insured & Room Rent Limits

  Corporate plans often have caps (e.g., ₹3-5 Lakhs) and restrict you to shared rooms. A personal premium policy ensures access to private rooms and higher coverage for critical illnesses.

✓ For NRIs: Protecting Roots & Parents

Living abroad doesn't mean you should ignore health security in India. It offers unique benefits:

• Parental Care

  Secure comprehensive plans for your parents back home. You can manage their claims and access top hospitals remotely with our assistance.

• Returning to India

  If you plan to return to India for retirement, buying a policy now locks in a lower premium and ensures you are fully covered immediately upon arrival, without waiting periods.

• Cost Arbitrage & Tax Benefits

  Medical treatment in India is a fraction of the cost abroad. Additionally, under Section 80D, you can claim tax deductions for premiums paid for your parents in India.

✓ The SwasthiyaSure Verdict

Don't leave your health to chance. Corporate covers are temporary, and international plans may not work seamlessly in India. We recommend "Super Top-up" plans for corporate employees to enhance cover cheaply, and comprehensive "Global Health Plans" for NRIs protecting their families back home.
