Care Health Insurance rejects post-hospitalisation claim without item-wise explanation

Care Health InsurancePC-2026-02939Insurance ClaimsAnonymous ·
*12 Years of Paying Premiums. One Year of Fighting for Fair Claim Settlement. And Another Rejection.* I have been a Care Health Insurance policyholder for 12 years. Over the past year, while dealing with kidney disease, I have been going from pillar to post to get my genuine medical claims assessed in accordance with my policy. Now, Care has rejected my post-hospitalisation reimbursement claim by stating: "Benefit Not Covered in Policy." Claim No.: ****** Policy No.: 95855172 Rejection Letter: 25 October 2026 The letter provides a general explanation of the "Benefit Not Covered" clause, with examples such as dental treatment, cosmetic treatment and preventive health check-ups. But my question is straightforward: Which specific expense in my post-hospitalisation claim is not covered, and under which exact policy clause? Post-hospitalisation benefits exist to cover eligible expenses after discharge, subject to the policy terms. A generic explanation does not clarify why my particular claim has been rejected. This comes while my earlier claim remains disputed: - Original claim: ₹2,80,000 - Amount paid: ₹1,82,590 - Balance disputed: ₹97,410 I appreciate that Care has withdrawn the separate recovery demand of ₹18,653 following the Insurance Ombudsman's award. However, the unresolved short settlement and this new rejection remain serious concerns. After 12 years of paying premiums, I am not asking for special treatment or anything beyond my policy. I am asking for specific reasons, the applicable policy clauses and a fair assessment of my eligible medical expenses. Care Health Insurance, please provide an item-wise explanation for this rejection and reconsider the claim in accordance with the actual policy terms. A policyholder should not have to spend a year repeatedly pursuing answers while managing a health condition. I hope this matter can still be resolved fairly and transparently.
