HDFC Life Health Assure Plan – Should you buy?

Frankly, this policy is more or less like already available health insurance plans. Multiplier benefit is a different feature which as of now is available only with Apollo Munich optima Restore. Single premium payment for 3 years (with good discount) and premium guarantee of 3 years even if you make a claim is also good feature. But one's decision to purchase the policy should not be based on these features only. Covering parents and Parents in law is also not different as it is available in many policies these days. Among some restrictive features are room rent limits and co pay condition in non network hospital.
