Do we need Health Insurance in India?

hey I think the company does provide for Insurance to the family members. ANd teh insurance comparitively here in India is pretty reasonable. The amount could differ on the cover you take.

I guess I had it wrong. My husband is telling me that the company is offering hospital coverage for the entire family but only outpatient coverage for my husband.

I looked online with AETNA international coverage and they don't offer just outpatient coverage...it's combined with hospital coverage. It was about $380/mo for me and the children. That's cheaper than the US but still seems high to me.

Hi Kalae,

Yes it is desired to have health insurance while in India if you can afford it. Although the cost for treatment is much less but it drains your resources in a strok. Regards-Naval
