Have you filed any health insurance claims? If yes, how do the two companies compare in handling them? If not, in what ways is your second insurance company better than the first? For context, I am a policyholder of Care Supreme.

Dear all,


We wanted to share this with the community in case it helps someone who is looking for health insurance.


Both my husband and I are visually impaired, and we are also working in the financial sector, where we actively deal with insurance. So we understand both sides — the customer challenges as well as how the industry works.


We recently ported our policy from Care Health Insurance to the HDFC ERGO Insurance Optima Secure plan. This is a mainstream health policy, and we were able to get it without any extra loading or disadvantages due to visual impairment.

According to our experience, this is one of the best plans available in the industry right now and HDFC ergo is also a really good health insurance brand with a smooth claim settlement process.


If anyone is looking to purchase a new health policy or port an existing one, we can personally assist and help you through the process and try to get you similar coverage.


Warm regards,

        Dear Friends,


        I have a health insurance policy from CARE Health Insurance.
        The policy specifically mentions that I am a Person With
        Disability & my disability is 100% blindness. The company
        issued me the policy on condition that no eye-related
        ailments or injuries would be covered except when they were
        caused by an accident. The waiting period for pre-existing
        diseases was 1 year.

        Hi everyone,

        I wanted to clarify a few points regarding Niva Bupa based
        on my experience. According to my agent, the only standard
        exclusion is dental-related issues, unless they are caused
        by an accidental injury. Most companies follow this same
        policy for dental care. I am not aware of any specific
        exclusions for eye-related issues, but I will confirm this
        tomorrow.

        Otherwise, Jyoti is correct—the policy covers everything
        from the start. They also provide one free full-body
        checkup every year. In my case, I disclosed my diabetes,
        and it was covered after the initial 30-day waiting period.
        I have already utilized the free health checkup, which is
        valued at approximately ₹3,000. Additionally, I received a
        30% discount by paying a three-year premium upfront.

            Yes, Niva Bupa Max health insurance is giving insurance
            to visually  impaired people. Only the restriction is
            that they don’t ensure I related problems. Other than
            that, they cover everything. And one can get claim,

                Hi everyone,

                I wanted to share my thoughts as I’m also visually
                impaired and understand firsthand how difficult it
                is to get health insurance. In many cases, insurers
                are hesitant or outright unwilling to offer
                policies to visually impaired people, which makes
                the process frustrating and exhausting.

                Recently, I’ve started working with a few insurers
                to help members of our community get health
                insurance and better understand what options are
                realistically available. I’m trying to bridge this
                gap as someone who has faced the same challenges.

                If anyone needs help or guidance around health
                insurance, feel free to reach out to me. Happy to
                help in any way I can.

                I currently have Niva Bupa health insurance. My
                policy explicitly mentions that I am visually
                impaired, and I have provided my disability
                certificate as documentation. Because this is
                disclosed, blindness should not be a basis for
                claim rejection. In my experience, I believe it is
                a good brand to consider.
