      Niva Bupa Health Insurance (Formerly known as Max Bupa Health Insurance) Claim Settlement Ratio

      The health claim settlement ratio is not a hard and fast rule to buy a health insurance plan. But it is recommended to check the claim ratio as it holds some stress over your final decision. The reason is that health insurance benefits like hospitalization expense cover, critical illness cover, sway you towards one policy over another and may not prove helpful if the insurer has a low health claim ratio.
