Looking to buy a health insurance plan that covers your whole family?
Here's how.👇 (1/n)
Getting yourself covered is prudent, but your family could use some insurance too, right?
That is where a ‘family floater’ plan comes in handy.
Think of this insurance policy as an umbrella cover for your entire family - you make single premium payments on behalf of the family and the sum assured can be used to cover for medical costs of any member.
Typically, this plan covers two adults and two children.
And it costs you less than buying separate insurance covers for everyone. Sweet, isn’t it?
You might wonder why any sane insurance company would offer a policy that covers everyone for a lesser price.
Think about it - what are the odds of all the family members falling ill at the same time? Slim to none, right? So the insurer isn’t exactly taking the fall.
Note that the ‘waiting period’ works differently when you buy a floater family plan - it’s calculated on an individual basis.
Here’s the thing - when you buy insurance, you have to wait for a set number of days before you can avail of the benefits.
Now, in family floater insurance - this waiting period varies for every family member being covered.
So overall, a family floater plan can be a pretty great idea. And if you need some help in selecting the right plan, talk to us today for free- joinditto.in/ask-ditto/?utm…

52 years ago, three astronauts decided to embark on the Apollo 11 mission- the 1st manned endeavor to land on the Moon.
But they were going without life #insurance since no insurer was willing to take the risk.
So they came up with a clever plan👇 (1/n)
Imagine being selected as the first human to set foot on the moon. But here’s the catch: you're going without life insurance.
So, if you die on the mission, your family will have to fend for themselves.
This was exactly the situation Apollo 11 astronauts found themselves in.
See, the risks were sky-high (literally). The rocket could combust, the landing could flop, and whatnot. In fact, during the Apollo 1 rehearsal, a capsule caught fire and the entire crew died.
Why should you buy health insurance at an early age?
A thread.👇(1/n)
#1 Better prices
Since the insurer is at a lower risk of getting claims, you can get a large cover at low premiums. But do note that these will increase with age.
#2 Comprehensive covers
Healthcare costs keep rising, so your company cover may fall short. Getting an individual cover early can provide you with adequate protection over and above your corporate plan. You’ll also be in a secure spot after retirement.
44% of people from our recent poll believe that one should choose a term #insurance plan with '2 cr cover till 85' over '3 cr till 65', assuming they cost the same.
But that might not be such a smart move, financially speaking, and here's why. 👇 (1/n)
The thing is that a term insurance plan is most effective when your absence deals a financial blow to your family.
God forbid, if something unfortunate happens to you when you're in your 40s or 50s, your children might be young & your spouse may be unable to single-handedly bear the brunt of it all.
You’re a diligent policyholder. You make timely premium payments. So, if the need arises, you’ll obviously expect your insurance company to meet your claims in full.
But, one question looms over you: will my claims be thrown under the bus if my insurer goes under? (2/7)
The answer’s no. Tell you why.
See, it’s not like someone decides to start an insurance company today, & it materializes tomorrow. There are strict regulations at play here.
