Buying a Health Insurance policy and not being able to settle your claims can be quite frustrating at times. Thus, to avoid such situations, it is important for you to always check the claim settlement ratio of your chosen company.
The Claim Settlement Ratio plays an important part while choosing a health insurance company for coverage. The Claim Settlement Ratio or CSR helps the potential policyholder to evaluate the company’s ability to settle claims. Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) publishes the CSR of all the insurance companies in their annual reports through which one can easily check and compare the CSR of the preferred and all the other insurance companies.
As per IRDAI, the New India Assurance Health Insurance Claim Ratio is 92.93%. Take a look at the below table to get the age analysis of the number of claims paid:
