Insurance Portability India

Health Insurance Portability Kya Hai?

IRDAI ne portability rule banaya hai — ek health insurer se doosre mein switch kar sakte ho bina waiting period credit khoye. Matlab purani policy mein jo waiting period complete hui hai, nayi policy mein bhi credit milti hai.

Health Insurance Portability — Complete Process

Port Kab Karna Chahiye

Current insurer ka claim settlement ratio poor hai. Better network hospitals chahiye doosre city mein. Premium zyada hai same cover ke liye elsewhere. Service poor hai — intimation delays, document hassles. Portability right hai — but wisely use karo.

Portability Rules — IRDAI Mandate

Application: Renewal se minimum 45 days pehle new insurer ko. New insurer old insurer se information directly lega — IRDAI mandate. Waiting period credit: Completed waiting period carry forward hogi. Pre-existing conditions: Old insurer mein jo waiting period complete hui — new mein credited. Sum insured increase: Extra amount pe fresh waiting period lagti hai.

Process Step by Step

Step 1: New insurer identify karo — premium, network, CSR compare karo. Step 2: Renewal se 45 days pehle new insurer ko portability request bhejo. Step 3: Old policy copy, claim history, renewal notice provide karo. Step 4: New insurer old insurer se directly information maangega. Step 5: New policy issue — with waiting period credits.

What You Can Change During Portability

Insurer: Obviously. Plan type: Individual se family floater ya vice versa. Sum insured: Increase possible — extra pe fresh waiting period. Add-ons: Add or remove based on new insurer's options. What you cannot: Already completed waiting periods ko reset nahi kar sakte — they carry forward.

Common Portability Mistakes

Too late application — 45 day rule miss karna. Gap in coverage — old policy expire ho gayi, new not started. Not getting rejection in writing — agar new insurer refuses, written rejection lo. Accepting reduced waiting period credit — verify with IRDAI if disputed.
