Questions

Health claim FAQs

Is MITRA's advice really free?

Yes — consultations and claims support are free for you. Like all insurance intermediaries, we earn a standard commission from insurers when a policy is issued. Our advisors are measured on fit and claim outcomes, not sales targets.

What does claims support include?

A dedicated claim expert prepares and verifies your documents, coordinates with the hospital, insurer or TPA, resolves queries, and explains the final settlement in plain language. It is included for policies bought or ported through MITRA.

Can MITRA guarantee that my claim will be paid?

No intermediary can decide or guarantee a claim outcome. The insurer decides based on policy wording and the facts of the claim. MITRA makes sure your file is complete, follows up, contests unsupported deductions and escalates when valid grounds exist.
