  • Super Health Platinum Infinite — The most feature-complete plan on this list and, unavoidably, the most expensive. The two features worth paying for are the 2-year pre-existing disease wait and restoration from the first claim — both directly reduce the odds of a claim being declined in the early years. That combination makes it worth a serious look if you are covering parents with existing conditions, where the third waiting year is a genuine risk. For a healthy 25-year-old it is dramatic overkill; Activ One MAX does the job for a quarter of the price.

What the claim record means

A settlement ratio is the share of claims an insurer paid in a year. It is the single most useful number about a company, and also the most easily misread: a high ratio on a small book says less than the same ratio on a large one, and it says nothing about how long a claim took or how hard it was to get paid. That is why we read it beside complaint volume — SBI General draws 14.04 complaints per 10,000 claims — rather than on its own.
