Aviva India, a leading private life insurance company, has announced the launch of the Aviva Smart Vitals plan, an individual non-linked, non-participating, pure risk health insurance fixed benefit plan that provides comprehensive protection against critical illnesses. The base sum insured starts at Rs 10 lakhs, with policyholders eligible to enhance coverage up to 2x the base sum assured through wellness-linked step-based rewards. Customers earn quarterly Wellness Additions of 2.5%, 5%, or 7.5% depending on their average daily steps.
The Smart Vitals plan provides a lump-sum benefit upon first diagnosis of any of the 49 covered critical illnesses and procedures. These include conditions such as cancer, kidney failure, heart ailments, brain surgery, stroke, and many others. Wellness benefits are tracked via Aviva’s Wellness360 App, and policyholders also get a smart tracking device (Loop by CarePlix X Smart Ring) at no additional cost (this is only valid for the policyholders who have opted for Rs 15 or Rs 20 lakhs base sum insured) to monitor activity. Unlike traditional Mediclaim plans which only reimburse hospitalization costs, Smart Vitals offers a fixed benefit that can be used freely for treatment, recovery, or other financial needs.
Designed as a holistic health and financial safeguard, it offers policyholders with flexibility to utilize the payout for medical expenses, income replacement, or other financial requirements, thereby addressing diverse family needs.
