Pragati Insurance Ltd has launched its new range of health care insurance plans with reinsurance and technical support from ICICI Lombard GIC Ltd of India, said a statement.
The plan covers individuals, their spouses/ dependants and corporate clients aged between 3 months to 60 years for medical expenses incurred during hospitalisation for more than 24 consecutive hours in various hospitals in Bangladesh and India.
It will provide three levels of coverage from 5 lakh, 8 lakh and 12 lakh respectively and will give benefits for expenses incurred on 30 days pre-hospitalisation and 60 days post-hospitalisation period.
Abdul Awal Mintoo, chairman of the company, said, “By offering this plan we would be able to save a substantial amount of foreign exchange drained out of Bangladesh every year as we travel to foreign countries, especially India, for medical treatment without any insurance.”
The other features of this plan include repatriation of remains from India, domestic ambulance cover, air travel cover, free health check-up and personal accident cover.
