About Royal Sundaram Surrosafe Plan

A quick read on what this Royal Sundaram Health Insurance plan covers and why it might be a fit for you.

The Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021, by the Government of India, mandates that any couple seeking a surrogate mother must purchase a three-year health insurance policy for her.

This regulation was passed to prohibit commercial surrogacy and exploitation of surrogate mothers and children born through surrogacy. Keeping this in mind, Royal Sundaram Health Insurance Company has launched the tailor-made Surrosafe health plan for surrogate mothers and oocyte donors (a woman who donates her eggs to another couple or woman requiring fertility assistance, such as IVF).

This page details the benefits, inclusions, and exclusions of the Surrosafe health insurance plan.
