Digit Worldwide Treatment Plan

Introduction

When comparing the core benefits and limitations of two insurance products, it is crucial to review the policy documents for each. These documents contain detailed terms and conditions that can differ between insurance companies. Variations may occur in the claim processes and the network of hospitals offering cashless benefits. Therefore, always ensure that your preferred hospital is included in the network of your chosen insurer.

Both products are marketed by the same insurance company, Digit. The Double Wallet plan is designed in a way to keep your monthly premiums low while at the same time providing you with a cover that can take care of your emergency medical needs including hospitalisation.

Key Benefits of Digit Double Wallet Plan

Wellness benefits like teleconsultation, healthcare at home, yoga and mindfulness available through Digit app

Feature comparison

Co-pay

With a co-payment clause, the insurer will mandate that you pay a part of the bill. So if the bill adds up to Rs. 2,00,000 and the co-payment is set at 20% then you could be asked to pay Rs. 40,000 from the bill. However in this case, both do not have a mandatory co-pay unless you want to get treated in a different zone where the treatment may be more expensive.

Room rent

If the policy does impose room rent restrictions then the insurer may only let you stay in a room of a certain specification or impose a cap on the total room rent. If you were to breach either criterion then the insurance company may ask you to pay a portion of all the expenses you incurred while staying in the room. In this case, however, both do not have any room rent cap.

Sub-limits

Some policies will tell you that they will cover all medical expenses up until the sum insured, but then impose caps on the total costs you can incur while dealing with a very specific list of diseases. We call these caps “Disease Wise Sub Limits.” You can check the policy document for sub-limits.

No claim bonus

Some policies will tell you that they will incentivize you for not making a claim in any given year. And they offer such incentives by offering extra cover on top of the existing sum insured. This extra cover is categorized as a no-claim bonus. Both plans offer an increase in sum-insured if you do not claim in the preceding year.

Maternity benefits

If you're hospitalized during childbirth, then you may have to incur significant costs during delivery of your newborn, child care and other related matters during the course of the hospitalization. These costs are collectively termed maternity costs. Digit does not offer maternity benefits.

Worldwide benefits

If your doctor identifies an illness during your health examination in India and you wish to get a treatment abroad, it can be covered if your plan offers worldwide benefits. This is available in Digit's Worldwide Treatment Plan but not in the Digit Double Wallet Plan.


Final Conclusion

Both plans are almost similar, hence it depends on the extent of coverage you seek. If you want something that’s slightly more comprehensive, you could go for Digit Worldwide Treatment Plan. However, if you are specifically looking to save some money and yet have a good cover, then you may want to consider the Digit Double Wallet Plan.
