When buying a top-up plan, some considerations to make are as follows:

• Deductible: Purchasing a top-up plan increases your coverage, but to use it, you must first meet your deductible amount. Customers typically choose a greater deductible since it results in a cheaper premium. The size of the deductible, however, must be chosen carefully and follow the customer's medical necessity.
• Perks: There are numerous perks associated with each plan; nevertheless, customers should prioritise selecting a top-up plan that best suits their needs. It's crucial to understand your needs and adjust the plan appropriately. Ensuring that the top-up you select satisfies all of your needs and provides adequate coverage is crucial.
• Coverage: Each plan has different coverage depending on the customer's age, plan, and health issues. Depending on their needs and health issues, family floaters, individuals, and senior persons have varied coverages in their policies.
• Sub-Limits: Before selecting a top-up plan, make sure to review the sub-limits of each coverage. Customers should prefer lower sub-limits as they may restrict your coverage. Selecting a top-up package without any sub-limits is usually recommended. A policyholder may have to pay bills out of pocket as a result of sub-limits.
• Waiting Period: A waiting period is a feature of all insurance plans. Customers only receive coverage for their medical procedures after this time has passed. When selecting a plan, always be sure to look up the treatment's waiting period. For the policyholder, a shorter waiting period is preferable.
