How is the Kotak Mahindra group health insurance premium calculated?

The Kotak Mahindra group health insurance premium is directly proportional to the risks involved. There are also certain factors which influence the premium for your group health insurance policy is calculated. They are -

Average age 

The premium is calculated based on the average age of the people insured. The younger the age, the lower the premium. This is because the older generation poses higher health risks. 

Type of plan opted

Different types of group health insurance policies opted are (E) employee only, (ESC) employee+spouse+children and (ESCP) employee+spouse+children+parents plans. The number of people covered under the ESCP plan is higher than the ones covered in the E plan. Hence, the premium will be higher when the scope of coverage is higher.

Nature of the job

The nature of the job one performs is also a factor considered to decide the annual premium. Jobs associated with more risks will have a higher premium compared to the lower-risk jobs. For instance, employees working in a factory will have higher group health insurance premiums than the ones working in the IT industry.

Sum insured

Sum insured is the maximum amount that an insurance company will pay you in case of any hospitalisation in a particular year. If the hospital expenses cross the sum insured, it will be paid by the policyholder itself. So the higher the sum insured, the higher the premiums paid towards the group health insurance policy.

Add-ons opted

The add-ons opted for say, maternity insurance riders, dental insurance riders along with the existing group health insurance policy will increase your group health insurance premium. The premium increases depending on the type of add-ons opted for.

Claims history

In the case of a group health insurance policy renewal, the claim history is considered to calculate the premium for that particular financial year. If the number of claims raised in a previous financial year is higher, then the premium towards the policy will increase during the policy renewal.

For instance, let a company named XYZ wants to renew their Kotak Mahindra group health insurance policy for 2022. The premiums paid by them for 2021 were ₹50,000. If the number of claims raised during 2021 is higher than that of 2020, then the premiums for 2022 will be greater than ₹50,000.
