Health Insurance In India: Only 11% of Population Covered..!

With medical inflation running in double-digit for last few years, not having a Health Insurance can be adventurous.

Ironically, the Health Insurance penetration level in India is extremely low compared to its western counterparts. 


Various estimates suggest 11% to 13% of population is presently covered with Health Insurance.
A World Bank analysis of financing of hospitalization shows that large proportion of people borrows money or / sells assets to pay for hospitalization. Majority of Indians are vulnerable to major ailments.
