Care Heart
If you've had a heart complication or a surgery in the past 7 years, chances are you won't find many insurers willing to cover you. And while Care Heart isn't the most comprehensive policy, it still extends you reasonable protection. So if you're a heart patient, you should be considering this policy.
What's good here?
Short waiting period for Pre Existing Diseases
If you’re already dealing with diabetes, cardiovascular problems or any such illnesses, the insurer will cover all costs arising out of these pre-existing problems after just 2 years. It’s probably the best deal you can get to be honest.

Good Restoration Benefit
You will have 100% of the cover restored, so that you can use this benefit in the event you have to endure multiple hospitalizations in a bid to treat a different complication In the same year, by the way.
Free Health Checkups every year
If you’re planning on getting a full body checkup every year just to make sure you’re in fine working condition, the insurer will cover the costs.
Some Cover for Alternative Medicine
Think of getting Ayurvedic, Homeopathic or other alternative treatments to cure an illness? Your insurer will pay up to 25% of the cover in case you’re availing these treatments.
Day Care treatments covered
If you’re hospitalized for less than 24 hours in lieu of a minor procedure, then the insurer will cover these costs too. Think dialysis, chemotherapy or minor surgeries.
Full coverage even if you are forced to hospitalize at home
The insurer will bear the costs even if you are hospitalized at home due to a condition or the hospital running out of beds. In insurance lingo, they call this a policy with domiciliary cover.
What's bad here?
Has disease wise sub-limits
Your insurance cover won’t be fully available in case you are treated for Knee Replacement, Hernia, Hysterectomy, Benign Prostate, Treatment of Cerebrovascular and Cardiovascular disorders, Treatment of Cancer and a few other diseases.

You can pick a Single Private room but nothing fancy
You can share a room or you could have a single room for yourself. But if you are looking for anything slightly fancy, be ready to foot a part of the bill.

Special Bonus for being healthy and not claiming insurance
Your sum insured increases by 10% each year, so long as you make no claims during this period.
