For the Young in their Early Twenties
Financial Independence
Have you recently started working? Fending for yourself is a great feeling, isn’t it? You don’t have to ask for money from anyone for your expenses. Your parents are also proud of your newfound earning capabilities. It’s all great, but you also need to have health insurance.
Why?
Read along to find out.
Lifestyle Diseases
Do you know how rapidly the incidence of lifestyle diseases amongst the young is increasing?
With growing stress to succeed in our professional lives, our endeavours of being healthy can sometimes take a backseat. Meeting every single need of our loved ones, building assets and maintaining our social lives can, at times, leave us physically and mentally exhausted.
With such neglect to our physical and mental well-being, lifestyle diseases like hypertension, diabetes, cardiac conditions etc. can kick in.
Therefore, it would help to stay financially prepared against medical uncertainties.
Here’s how you can do it with Star health insurance.

Star Health Insurance Medi Classic Individual Plans for Family Members
You may continue your plan from your twenties and buy additional individual plans for family members. The advantage here is that every member has their own individual sum insured. The sum insured is the maximum limit that an insurer will cover the medical expenses. This can come in handy if more than one family member needs hospitalisation in a year. Claims for one member will not take away the sum insured from another member.
However, the chances of multiple family members needing hospitalisation in a year are low. Is there a way you can pool the sum insured of members and avail lower premiums? As it turns out, there is.
