The Prakash Family is covered under a traditional health insurance plan with individual policies, of which Mr. Prakash is separately covered for

2 Lakhs, his wife for

1 Lakh, their son and daughter for

50,000 each. They have paid premium for all these four policies separately. In an unforeseen situation, wherein surgery and post hospitalisation bill of their son amounts to

1.30 Lakhs, the existing policy will cover only

50,000, while Mr. Prakash will have to bear the balance

80,000 from his pocket. However, with Family Floater Health Insurance plan, each member of the Prakash family can utilize the entire sum insured of

4 Lakhs. Thus in the above situation, Family Floater would have covered the entire amount of

1.30 Lakhs of medical expenses of his son.
