How to file a health
insurance claim

Follow these steps exactly to avoid delays and rejections.

Cashless Claim
1
Inform the insurer
Call the insurer's helpline within 24–48 hours of hospitalisation (or before, for planned procedures). Get a pre-authorisation number.
⏰ Planned: 3–4 days before admission
2
Submit pre-auth form
The hospital's TPA desk submits the pre-authorisation form to the insurer on your behalf. Ensure all doctor details and diagnosis are accurate.
3
Insurer approves treatment
The insurer reviews and approves the estimated treatment cost. Any amount beyond the approved limit must be paid by you.
✅ Keep all original bills
4
Discharge & settlement
At discharge, the hospital bills the insurer directly. You only pay any co-payment, deductible, or non-covered items.
Reimbursement Claim
1
Intimate the insurer
Notify the insurer within the intimation period (usually 24–72 hours for emergencies; before for planned). Keep your policy number handy.
2
Pay & collect all documents
Pay hospital bills yourself. Collect all original documents — discharge summary, bills, prescriptions, diagnostic reports, and payment receipts.
📁 Keep originals safe
3
Submit claim form + documents
Submit the duly filled claim form with all supporting documents within 30 days of discharge (check your policy for exact timelines).
4
Follow up for settlement
Insurers must settle or reject within 30 days of receiving all documents. Follow up regularly and respond promptly to any queries.
⚡ TatvaPlus follows up on your behalf

Documents you need
for each claim type

Missing even one document is the most common reason for claim delays. Use this checklist before submitting.

🏥 Health Insurance Claim
Duly filled and signed claim form
Original hospital bills and receipts
Discharge summary with diagnosis and treatment details
Doctor's prescription and consultation notes
All investigation / lab reports (blood, scan, X-ray)
Pharmacy bills (with prescription)
Indoor case papers (for hospitalisation claims)
Photo ID proof of patient
Original policy document (or soft copy)
Cancelled cheque / bank account details for reimbursement
🛡️ Term Insurance Death Claim
Duly filled claim intimation / death claim form
Original policy document
Death certificate (original + attested copies)
Nominee's photo ID and address proof
Nominee's bank account details + cancelled cheque
Medical records (if death due to illness)
Post-mortem report + FIR (if accidental death)
Hospital records (if hospitalised before death)
Age proof of the life insured
NEFT / bank mandate form for claim payment

TatvaPlus tip: Always keep photocopies of every document before submitting originals. For term insurance claims, ask the insurer for a written acknowledgment of your submission with a reference number.

The most common reasons
claims are rejected — and how to avoid them

Knowing what goes wrong is half the battle. Here are the top 6 reasons insurers reject claims.

Late Intimation
Failing to inform the insurer within the required timeframe (usually 24–72 hours for emergencies) is one of the most avoidable reasons for rejection.
✓ Intimate within 24 hours always
📄
Missing Documents
Incomplete submission — missing original bills, no discharge summary, or absent investigation reports — leads to automatic delays or rejections.
✓ Use our document checklist above
🚫
Non-Disclosure at Purchase
If you did not disclose a pre-existing illness or habit (smoking, alcohol) when buying the policy, the insurer can reject claims related to those conditions.
✓ Always disclose everything honestly
Waiting Period Claims
Claiming for a condition that falls under the waiting period (usually 2–4 years for pre-existing diseases or specific illnesses) will be rejected.
✓ Know your waiting period clauses
🏥
Non-Covered Treatments
Cosmetic procedures, dental work (without accident), or treatments listed under policy exclusions are not payable — even if medically necessary.
✓ Read your exclusion list carefully
💊
OPD Without Cover
Standard health plans cover only hospitalisation (24+ hours). OPD consultations, pharmacy bills without hospitalisation, and outpatient tests are usually excluded.
✓ Buy an OPD rider if needed
