Family Floater vs. Individual Health Plans: Choose Wisely for Your Household's Future
- •Family floater policies offer a shared cover pool, often cheaper initially, ideal for younger families with lower health risks.
- •Floaters become challenging as family members age; one major claim can deplete the entire sum, impacting others and increasing renewal premiums.
- •Individual policies provide separate coverage for each member, ensuring one person's claim doesn't affect others, offering better premium stability and predictability for older adults.
- •A blended approach is often best: floater for self, spouse, and children, with separate policies for aging parents (60+) to manage higher risks and premiums.
- •Super top-up plans can enhance both floater and individual policies, providing additional cover for large medical expenses without significantly increasing base premiums.
Why It Matters: Choose health insurance based on family age and health needs; review and adjust policies regularly.
