Family Floater Health Insurance — One Plan for Your Entire Family

Cover your entire family under a single health insurance policy with a shared sum insured. Affordable premiums, cashless hospitalization at 10,000+ hospitals, and comprehensive family protection.

What is Family Floater Health Insurance?

Family floater health insurance is a single policy that covers the entire family — typically self, spouse, and dependent children — under one shared sum insured. Unlike individual policies where each member has a separate cover, a family floater pools the coverage for all members.

This makes it significantly more affordable than buying separate individual policies for each family member while providing comprehensive hospitalization coverage, pre and post-hospitalization expenses, daycare procedures, and much more.
