Cashless Treatment
I had heard about cashless treatment at hospital and decided to buy health policy with this benefit. At Policybazaar, I found that cashless treatment is available under all health insurance plans. I picked the United India health insurance policy as it fulfilled my expectations without being expensive. I could also pay the premium online without any problem. You should try it too.

Claim Assistance
Two months back, I had purchased Corona Kavach policy of United India from Policybazaar. Last month, I became COVID positive and was hospitalized in the hospital. The family called the claims team of the company and they helped them to file a claim. They also told us the documents to submit and made sure my treatment was not affected. Wonderful job claims team.

Best Critical Illness Plan
I wanted to buy a policy that would cover me for cancer and came to Policybazaar to find it. The website had several critical illness plans with different benefits and cost. I compared the plans to find the best policy and bought the UNI Criticare policy from United India. It covered cancer with other critical diseases but was not very costly. I recommend it to everyone.
