Star Health Insurance Online Policy Renewal

Star Health and Allied Insurance Company Limited is a private sector standalone health insurance company. A variety of health insurance products are offered by the company at affordable premiums. Moreover, the company not only allows you to buy health insurance online, it also allows the renewal of its health insurance policies online too. Individuals having health plans from Star Health can do health insurance renewal through the company’s website. Here’s the process of online renewal of Star health insurance plans:

• The policy is required to visit the website of the company which is www.starhealth.in.
• On the home page of the company’s website, the option of ‘Renewals’ is available.
• The policyholder should select the option whereupon a new page would open. The policy number of the existing policy and the date of birth of the insured would be required. Both these information are available on the policy document of the existing policy.
• Once the details are entered, the policyholder should select ‘Submit’.
• Upon submission of the details, the details of the existing policy would be displayed along with the renewal premium which is payable.
• The policyholder can pay the renewal premium online and the health insurance policy would be renewed in an instant.

Though health insurance renewal is very simple through the online medium, there are some things which the policyholder should keep in mind when renewing the policy. These things are as follows:

• The sum insured of the policy should be checked. If the policyholder wants, the sum insured can be increased when the policy is being renewed.
• The policyholder can also opt for optional coverage benefits when renewing if such benefits were not opted in the existing health insurance plan.
• Any new family members could be added to the cover if required. An additional premium should be paid for adding a new family member. Similarly, existing members can be removed from coverage if required. This addition or removal of members is allowed only on renewal.
• The premium discounts should be availed when renewing the policy. The discounts can be seen online itself.
