Types of claims that you can opt for, all from the Medi Assist Portal.
Reimbursement Claims
Reimbursement, as the dictionary mentions, is compensation paid for money already spent. For a Mediclaim policy, reimbursement claims mean you pay the hospital bills first and get them compensated from the insurance company at a later stage. Opt for reimbursement claim option only if the hospital you or your family is getting treated in is not a network hospital. Opt for cashless otherwise.

Cashless Claims
Cashless hospitalization can be availed only at a hospital that falls within your insurer network. It is a facility provided by the insurance company where the policyholder can get admitted and undergo necessary treatment without paying the hospital directly for the medical expenses.
Homecare/Domiciliary Claims
Not all forms of treatment require you to be admitted to a hospital. Instead, caregivers can administer medicines at your home. Or in other words, you can undergo treatment at home. This is domiciliary treatment. Under it, an insurer will cover the bills you accrue through domiciliary hospitalization. Learn more about Domiciliary Claims.
Outpatient Claims
OPD means an outpatient department, where patients come to the hospital to consult their health issues with the doctor to start the treatment. Patients are not required to be hospitalized but can visit any associated facility, such as a consultation room, diagnosis, pharmacy, etc., in the hospital. In case your mediclaim policy covers OPD expenses, you can avail cashless/reimbursement claims depending on if the hospital is in our network or not. Read more about OPD claims and their benefits.

The claims can be availed by submitting either cashless or reimbursement options, depending on if the hospital is in our network or not.
