Siddharth Biswas, 32, wants to take no chances when it comes to health. Having faced the trauma of the untimely demise of his father due to cancer, he wants to be “adequately prepared” for any such eventuality.
Siddharth has signed up for a cancer-care product offered by ICICI Prudential for an annual premium of ₹4,800.
Attractive pricing and customised offering make disease-specific health insurance products a preferred choice over critical illness plans, which typically cover a host of illnesses including cancer, heart ailments, stroke, kidney failure and burns.
