Insurance products that are Must Have

According to me the following are must have in order of importance:

  1. Personal Accident Insurance
  2. Critical Illness Cover
  3. Health Insurance
  4. Car/Bike Insurance
  5. Term Life Insurance

Please feel free to suggest other products, if I have missed any. Also please suggest any recommended insurance providers for those products.

Every tried getting a car accident claim from acko, they'll ask you bring car to their prefered workshop instead of car company workshop, which itself contradictory to car's warranty, car company could void warranty for external repairs.

I gave least importance to Term Life Insurance, because for this product one can never claim on their own.

I'm an insurance advisor. Let's do an exercise.

  1. Write three names who are going to help your family in your sudden loss.

  2. For how long and how much per month are they going to provide to your family members? Include expenses like rent, emi, groceries, school fees, parents medicals etc.

Yes, have home cooked food daily, exercise for 30 minutes every day, that will cover you against almost all illness. For diseases such as Cancer which can happen to anyone, buy a Critical Illness Insurance.

Ask from a reputed hospital near your house, which insurance provider has best relation with them it's easier to get treatment done, otherwise in cashless claims the hospital might treat you to lower priority because your insurance company doesn't pays them on time.

Critical illness cover is not required. It's almost a waste. I'm an insurance advisor. I know what I'm talking about.

Yes, you are right, but Personal Accident and Critical Illness Covers can be considered for someone who doesn't want to purchase a Health Insurance.
