FAQ's on Cashless
Hospitalisation and Health Insurance: |
|
|
|
1)
Do
all Health Insurance Policies offer cashless hospitalisation
facility?
Ans:
Today, most Health Insurance policies do offer cashless
hospitalisation facility and route your policy through a Third party
Administrator (TPA). However you should be familiar with the terms-
Network Hospital and Non-network Hospital.
Network Hospitals are those hospitals that your TPA has an agreement
with. In case of hospitalisation, if you get admitted to a Network
Hospital you will be eligible for cashless hospitalisation, subject
to the other terms and conditions mentioned in your policy being
fulfilled. In case you are admitted to a Non-network Hospital, you
will have to settle the bills directly to the hospital and then seek
re-imbursement through your TPA. |
|
|
|
2) In
case of Emergency Hospitalisation:
Ans:
In case of emergency hospitalisation, the corporate help desk will
take up your case on a fast track basis with your TPA and is likely
to receive approvals within 3 hours during any working day.
For cashless treatment it is mandatory for the hospital to have an
approval from your TPA. Incase of delay in receiving the approval or
when you cannot wait for receiving the approval owing to medical
urgency you can undertake the treatment by paying the necessary cash
deposit.
If you receive approval from your TPA after paying the cash deposit,
you are entitled for refund of the cash deposit. |
|
|
|
3) What do I do if I do not get approval on my cost of treatment
till the time of discharge at the Hospital?
Ans:
Cashless hospitalisation is linked to the approval of the
estimated expenditure on your proposed treatment. In case you do
not get your approval you will need to bear the entire
expenditure incurred on the treatment. Therefore it is always
prudent to get the approval and then get yourself admitted. You
could explain the benefits of getting the approval before the
date of your admission to your treating doctor as well when he
recommends an immediate admission.
At Asha Hospitals, we will not entertain any request for a
refund of the amount paid if the approval comes after the
process for your discharge has commenced. |
|
|
|
4) Under what circumstances will the request for cashless
hospitalisation not be entertained?
Ans:
Normally your request for approval might be rejected when:
-
Information
contained in the pre-authorisation form is insufficient for
the TPA to arrive at a decision and further information is not
available for various reasons. However the chances of
rejection under this criterion are rare since the Corporate
Help Desk at the hospital is experienced in complying with
pre-authorisation formalities and will advise you suitably
-
The ailment for
which hospitalisation is being sought by you is not covered
under your insurance policy for reasons like pre-existing
ailment, specific exclusions (accident admission under the
influence of alcohol)
-
You have exhausted
your eligible Medical Insurance cover for the year.
|
|
|
|
5) What do I do if the actual medical expenses overshoot the
pre-approved amount?
Ans:
In case your hospitalisation expenses exceed the pre-approved
amount, you can approach the Corporate Help Desk to apply for an
enhancement of the pre-approved amount.
The Corporate Help Desk will apply for an enhancement on your
behalf with the TPA and provide the necessary documentation. In
case you have not exhausted your medical insurance limit, it is
most likely that your TPA will approve the application for the
enhancement – either for the requested enhanced amount or up to
your insured limit after deducting the value already utilized by
you during the year – whichever is less.
If the TPA turns down the request for enhancement you will need
to pay the amount incurred in excess of your approved amount
directly to the hospital before the discharge |
|
|
|
6) Does cashless hospitalisation cover all medical expenses?
Ans:
For complete details on the medical expenses that are covered,
and those that are not covered, you need to go through your
health insurance policy. However, in general, the expenses
listed below are not reimbursable under cashless hospitalisation
• Registration / Admission Fee
• Telephone Charges
• Visitors / Attenders Charges
• Ambulance Charges
• Charges for Diet, which is not part of the administered
treatment
• Document Charges
• Toiletries
• Non-medical Expenses
• Service Charges
These need to be settled by you directly to the hospital at the
time of discharge |
|
|
|
7) In case of
cashless hospitalisation, what are the documents the hospital
requires from me at the time of discharge?
Ans:
All the original documents including bills, lab reports,
discharge summary and claim form. All the original documents
duly signed by you need to be submitted to the hospital. |
