"If you are hospitalised for say five days and if I take a cover which is Rs 500, then you get Rs 500 for five days – Rs 2,500 total. These coverages can be taken from 500 to 25,000 per day, so this is that vast. If I were to think that my other miscellaneous expenses are going to be more than 2,000, 3,000 per day, then I would take a hospital cash policy which would cover me for that because that again is an expense that pinches your pocket."
