Health Insurance - Importance and Benefits

Health insurance has become a need of the hour and everybody is really taking it next to Life Insurance, knowing the importance of it or without knowing it!

But, What I found mostly is everyone who is working in the corporate sector are covered already by the company by a Group Mediclaim Policy by the Company itself and they are not interested in taking up another policy and they find it waste of money. Their question is why should I take the policy outside as I am already covered by my company?

The value of taking a separate mediclaim policy lies in the following factors :
(1) when you shift your company often
(2) To support all the people in your family
(3) In this era, no amount you can say is enough for your health coverage. May be you can apply for a separate mediclaim for higher coverage.

Many of the companies are now giving Health Insurance and some of the companies like Apollo DKV is giving coverage till the lifetime, which can be availed off. Some of the companies give the coverage for the maternity but some doesn't. Even if they cover for the maternity, they would have the cap of Rs. 50,000/-.

So, Its better to judge before to get the health insurance plan and its the need of the hour after the life insurance.

What does customer experience mean?

Customer experience is the experience of the customer from the period they came to know about the existence of the product until they finish using the product. For a hotel like Saravana Bhavan, the customer experience is from the point they came to know about its existence (the day they started) until they are associated with that particular customer (probably, forever for Saravana Bhavan but it depends on each of the customer). For a typical brokerage firm, it is all about how easy it is to open the account and the experience until the customer closes the account. For BSNL or Samsung, it is from when the customer gets to know about their products (the point when they want to buy it) until the time they stopped using it. Customer service is also part of it. Its all about the customer service, once the customer has become the owner of the product. Most of the times, I have seen, the Customer Experience is great until one procure the product or service and after that, because of t...

Chennai are Champions again

Its yellow everywhere. And its Dhoni magic working so well these days! This year's IPL was not so encouraging for many people around India. Reasons being, (1) Players shifting from one team to another team (2) Too much cricket (3) Cricket Fans Fatigue (Yeah!! We too are tired) Probably, Because of the amount of turnout for watching Sachin and Dhoni in all the matches they are playing, they are asked to play even if they are tired. Now, they are expected to take rest in the upcoming WI series, giving way to the youngsters. Yes! Dhoni has the golden charm to do it again and has repeated it for Chennai. Good to see them win all their 8 matches this time and coming good this convincingly this year. Happy for Chennai :)
