    Frequently Asked Questions on Global Cover

    What is Global Cover?

    Global Cover is a health insurance rider under the My Health Care Plan Edge Plus. In exchange for an additional premium, the rider enables policyholders to extend their medical cover beyond their home country. So, they can avail both planned and emergency treatment benefits without worrying about out-of-pocket charges. 

    Is Global Cover available for all Sum Insured options?

    No, Global Cover is not available for all sum insured options. Only policyholders with more than ₹10 Lakh sum insured are eligible for this rider benefit. 

    Can Global Cover be used anywhere in the world?

    Yes, the Global Cover can be used anywhere in the world. To make a claim under this cover, you need to notify the insurer. In case of planned treatment, you need a pre-authorisation, and for emergencies, the insurer needs to be informed within 24 hours of hospitalisation. 

    Is a cashless facility available under Global Cover?

    Yes, you can avail a cashless facility under Global Cover if you choose to get treatments in a Bajaj General-collaborated network hospital. 

    Can Global Cover and International Cover – Emergency Care Only be opted for together?

    Yes, you can choose our Global Cover, International Cover, and Emergency Care Only together for extended protection while travelling. However, you must ensure that you are eligible for such coverage. 

    In which currency are Global Cover claims paid?

    The claims under Global Cover will be paid in the policyholder’s home country. Please go through the policy wordings to check which countries are marked as Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and, therefore, restricted from this cover. 

    What is the co-pay applicable under Global Cover?

    Global Cover allows policyholders to choose co-pay options ranging between 10% and 50%. Copayment is the co-sharing arrangement where the policyholder pays a fixed percentage for a covered medical treatment. It is up to the policyholder to decide which percentage of copayment they want to choose. When the co-pay is higher, the premium goes lower.  

    Are transportation expenses covered under Global Cover?

    Yes, Bajaj General’s My Health Care Plan Edge Plus provides policyholders with emergency road and air ambulance evacuation from the site of accident or illness to the nearest hospital. 

    What is the trip duration limit under Global Cover?

    Usually, the Global Cover has a trip duration of up to 45 days per trip and 180 days total within a policy year. It completely depends on the policy type selected by the policyholder.  

    What does Global Cover cover for planned treatments?

    The Global Cover offered by Bajaj General includes daycare treatments, emergency hospitalisation, ICU, nursing, diagnostic test expenses, and emergency road and air ambulance transportation expenses. Please read the policy documents carefully for the detailed coverage. 

    How do I intimate a claim under Global Cover for emergencies?

    To make a claim under Global Cover during emergencies, you need to inform the insurer within 24 hours of hospitalisation, undergo necessary treatments and submit hospital bills along with other medical reports to the insurer. 

    Are waiting periods applicable under Global Cover?

    Yes, since Global Cover includes planned treatments, waiting periods are applicable. Waiting periods range between 12 months and 36 months, depending on the disease and procedures. 

    How do I initiate a cashless claim at a network hospital?

    Present your health card at the network hospital. The hospital will send a pre‑authorisation request to the insurer, and once approved, the bills will be settled directly without upfront payment.

    What documents are required for a reimbursement claim?

    You need hospital bills, discharge summary, prescriptions, diagnostic reports, and payment receipts. These documents must be submitted to the insurer within the specified time frame for claim processing.

    How long does it take for a claim to be settled?

    Cashless claims are usually approved within hours, while reimbursement claims are settled within 7–15 working days after submission of complete documentation. However, this is subject to the terms and conditions of the insurance provider.

    What is the time limit to notify Bajaj General after an emergency hospitalisation?

    You must notify the insurer within 24 hours of emergency hospitalisation to ensure smooth claim processing and approval.

    Can I claim for pre‑ and post‑hospitalisation expenses separately?

    Yes, pre‑hospitalisation expenses (up to 60 days before admission) and post‑hospitalisation expenses (up to 90 days after discharge) can be claimed separately, subject to policy terms.

    How do I find a network hospital for cashless treatment?

    You can check the insurer’s official website, mobile app, or customer helpline to locate the nearest empanelled network hospital for cashless treatment.

    What happens if my cashless claim request is rejected at the hospital?

    If a cashless claim is rejected, you can still file a reimbursement claim by submitting all required documents to the insurer after discharge.

    Is there a sub‑limit on room rent under MHCP EDGE+?

    Yes, coverage includes a single private A/C room. ICU charges are covered as per policy terms, but higher room categories may attract proportionate deductions.

    How are claims handled for treatment received outside India under the Global Cover?

    Claims under the Global Cover rider are settled as per international treatment rules, with a mandatory co‑pay applicable. Planned and emergency treatments abroad follow specific rider conditions.

    Will my premium increase after I make a claim?

    Premiums may increase based on underwriting after a claim. However, if you have the Age Shield rider, your premium remains locked at the entry age until a claim is made.

    Can I port my existing health insurance policy to MHCP EDGE+?

    Yes, you can port your existing health insurance policy to MHCP EDGE+ under IRDAI portability guidelines, subject to underwriting and continuity of benefits.

    Are there any long‑term policy discounts for choosing a 3 or 5‑year tenure?

    Yes, MHCP EDGE+ offers attractive discounts for long‑term tenures of 3 or 5 years, making coverage more affordable over time.

    What happens to my Cumulative Bonus if I make a claim during the policy year?

    The Cumulative Bonus reduces proportionately after a claim but is not lost entirely, ensuring continued benefit growth in future years.

    Can I upgrade my sum insured at renewal without a fresh waiting period?

    Yes, you can upgrade your sum insured at renewal. Waiting periods will apply only to the enhanced portion, not to the existing coverage.

    What is the grace period for renewing an expired MHCP EDGE+ policy?

    A grace period of 30 days is provided to renew an expired policy. Coverage benefits resume once renewal is completed within this timeframe.

    Can I add a new family member to the policy at renewal?

    Yes, new family members can be added at renewal, subject to underwriting and documentation requirements.

    Will my Age Shield benefit continue if I renew without a break?

    Yes, the Age Shield benefit continues seamlessly if renewal is done without a break in coverage.

    What discounts are available at the time of renewal?

    Renewal discounts include family, loyalty, wellness‑linked, and long‑term tenure benefits, helping reduce premium costs while maintaining comprehensive protection.
