Travel insurance will provide you with peace of mind on both short and long trips.

This is where travel insurance comes into play, as it assists during times of crisis.

Also, with benefits like cashless treatment across network hospitals and quick settlements, you are assured of getting medical treatment without any delay. Star Health is the only Domestic Insurer who offers Cashless settlement for inpatient medical claims.

There can be a multitude of reasons why your flight may be delayed. Under such circumstances, having domestic travel insurance will cover any hotel and additional expenses that may be incurred on account of the delay.

If you frequently use trains, airlines, or buses for travelling across cities, availing of a domestic insurance policy can be a sound investment. It will keep you financially prepared for any kind of unforeseen mishap, enabling you to keep your entire focus on your journey.
