Niva Bupa (erstwhile Max Bupa)
Aspire Platinum +
Niva Bupa’s Aspire Platinum+ plan offers enhanced benefits compared to the Gold+ and Diamond+ variants, making it a premium yet affordable option. While retaining features like "Lock the Clock," "Booster+," and "M-iracle," Platinum+ significantly reduces the maternity waiting period to just 9 months (compared to 4 years in Gold+ and 2 years in Diamond+). It also includes global healthcare access via "Borderless" and rewards for claim-free years through "Cash-Bag." Coverage options extend up to ₹1 crore, ensuring robust financial protection.
What's good here?
Age Lock Benefit
Your premiums will not increase until you make a claim. However, once the claim is made, the premiums will increase based on age, inflation etc.

You’ll never have to split the bill
The insurer will bear the entire cost of treatment (up to the sum insured). You won’t have to pay a single penny. Meaning this policy has no co-payment.
You always have full cover irrespective of the disease
No funny business here. If your insurer hasn’t explicitly stated they won’t cover a certain illness, you can claim the full amount up to the sum insured, irrespective of the disease you’re dealing with. Meaning this policy doesn't impose the dreaded disease wise sub-limits.
Unlimited Restoration Benefit
Even after you claim part of the cover on one occasion, you will be allowed to claim the full cover any number of times repeatedly if you are hospitalized in the future. All in the same year by the way!!!
Carry forward your unutilized cover
Every year the policy will calculate the unutilized base cover and transfer it to the next year. So if you started with 10 lakhs and you made a claim totaling 2 lakhs, the remaining 8 lakhs will be added to your cover next year and you will have 18 lakhs (10 lakhs base cover + 8 Lakhs unutilized base cover as bonus) for the next year. This will continue until your cover totals 4x-11x the base sum insured depending on your entry age.
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.
You can pick any room you like
Shared room, single room, deluxe room or any room that’s available. The insurer won’t nitpick on your choice of room since the policy has no restrictions on room rent.
Pre & Post hospitalization expenses covered
No worries if the doctor had to run a host of diagnostic tests before or after hospitalizing you. The insurer has your back. They will cover this amount in full for a pretty reasonable duration - 60 days before you are hospitalized and 180 days after discharge. This includes the cost of medication by the way.
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.
Free Health Checkups
Available from day-1, for defined list of tests from network facilities only.
Covers Alternative Medicine
Think of getting Ayurvedic, Homeopathic or other alternative treatments to cure an illness? Your insurer will cover you fully, up to the sum insured.
What's okay here?
