HDFC ERGO Individual Personal Accident – Revive

Objective

A personal accident policy that allows to extend coverage to include spouse, children and/ or parents under the same policy.

 

Suited for

This policy is suitable for those who want to include all family members under one accident policy.

 

What does it do?

This is a personal accident policy that can be either bought as an individual policy for oneself or as a family policy that covers your spouse and children as well. It allows to cover your parents under the same policy. It covers accidental death, permanent disablement, broken bones and burns. It provides a daily cash benefit up to the maximum number of days mentioned in policy schedule. Ambulance cost is also covered.

 

Pros

Family discount on covering two or more members is available.
Parents can be covered.
5 per cent bonus for each claim-free year is available.
This policy can be bought online through company's website.

 

Cons

Policy benefits for parents(if covered) are limited to pre- decided levels.
This policy does not cover temporary disablement.
There is no taxation benefit.

 

Our View

A standalone personal accident cover is a must for those exposed to any type of accidental risks, be it driving on road or working in a factory. Option to include parents makes this policy stand out. However, including parents should be considered only if they are exposed to the accidental risk and really require this type of cover.
