25 lakh insurance cover ?

What should be the insurance cover limit I’ve to choose for my parents who are in their late 50s? I read an article on economic times about how high value health insurance polices are not a great choice.

P.S : They have a 5 lakh cover from star health insurance currently but I want to get them even health insurance policy with OPD. (25 lakh cover)

15-20 lakh is sufficient. But if you really want to be fool proof then 30 lakh floater. OPD policy is not a wise decision though. I'm an insurance advisor and can be contacted on email for personal advice (check bio).

A better indicator would be expected hospital bill in case of emergency (God forbid!). IPD + OPD is a good choice, but don’t know how many insurance companies have this option. 5 lakhs is definitely insufficient and very high value is definitely a splurge. Get a family floater (I think 25 lakhs sounds good, but please use your discretion)

Thanks appreciate it. Even health insurance provides IPD + OPD
