Health Insurance in Ahmedabad
One private-hospital admission in Ahmedabad can erase five years of savings. LIC Arogya Rakshak is a fixed-benefit health plan — hospitalisation pays a defined daily benefit plus surgical benefits with no room-rent restrictions — while Cancer Cover pays a lump sum on diagnosis at any stage.
Fixed-benefit plans complement reimbursement mediclaim rather than replacing it: the lump sum covers the income loss, travel, and attendant costs that bills never show.

Health Insurance — common questions
What does LIC Arogya Rakshak cover?
Fixed daily hospital cash benefit, surgical benefits, day-care procedures, and ambulance benefit, renewable for lifetime with no room-rent caps. Payouts are fixed sums per event — claimed alongside, not instead of, any mediclaim policy.
How does LIC Cancer Cover work?
A lump sum is paid on early-stage diagnosis and the full sum assured on major-stage diagnosis, with future premiums waived after diagnosis and an optional income benefit. Cover is available at modest premiums when bought young and healthy.
I already have company mediclaim. Do I still need this?
Usually yes. Company cover ends with the job, rarely covers parents adequately, and never pays for income loss during treatment. A fixed-benefit plan travels with you across employers and pays cash you control.
