Life Insurance For Transplant Patients
I came across the above question in a TV show when I realized that the expectations for changes in the insurance law did not reach the expected flood of foreign investment, as foreign ownership increased from 26% to 49%.
Heart Transplant: When And How It’s Done
I have briefly reviewed the Act and found that it contains some significant changes that will completely transform the way consumers interact with the life insurance industry in India and the way business is conducted. Some of the more important changes I noticed are discussed in this article.
First, the insurance company is responsible for the actions of its agents. Fines and penalties for bad sales have been increased several times and will now be charged separately for each incident. The cap on commissions and fees has been removed from the Act and it is now the responsibility of IRDA to set the cap. All of this will fundamentally change the way life insurance products are designed and more importantly sold. There are some signs that upfront payments are indeed increasing now, but it seems unlikely that the insurance regulator will fight alone, swimming against the rising tide of lower intermediary margins and lower costs charged to all customers, especially as there is consolidation. A regulatory framework is believed to be around the corner. In any case, the provision prohibiting misleading sales and multi-level marketing of life insurance and holding insurers responsible for misleading sales by their agents is likely to bring about major changes in the way insurance is sold in India. It is unlikely that there will be a utopia of more mis-selling today, but we will certainly see a decrease in mis-selling complaints in the future.
Other major areas where significant changes have been made that directly affect insurance consumers are claims payments, nominations and assignments. Reasons for death certificates to be rejected are fully revised. Now a life insurance policy claim cannot be rejected even after 3 years, even for fraud. Also 2 levels of difference are given in 3 years. Only in cases of consumer fraud (which are well established) does the burden of proof rest on the insured’s family members. In other cases (within 3 years), the burden of proof rests with the life insurance company. This should make it harder for life insurance companies to deny death claims, which is good for consumers.
The only concern is that the market has seen several cases of organized life insurance fraud, which could get a boost from these tough consumer-friendly rules. This, in turn, may force insurance companies to be more cautious when issuing term life insurance policies. This may affect the encouraging trend of higher growth in online term life insurance sales. Overall, however, these changes are positive because they strengthen the benefits of life insurance when they are most needed – after the breadwinner expires.

The entire nomination structure in life insurance has changed. Currently, the nominee of the life insurance policy (ie the person to whom the money is paid after the death of the policyholder) only holds the money received after the death of the policyholder as a trustee on behalf of the legal heirs of the policyholder. In simple words, this means that the policyholder can name his father as the authorized representative in the policy. If the owner of the policy dies without leaving a will, his wife is the only legal heir as per personal law applicable to him. In case of death, the insurance company will pay the assured amount to the father. But the father will hold the money in trust for the wife, who in this case is the legal heir. However, after the change takes place, the father will also benefit. This change applies to claims paid under legacy policies and for as long as the claim remains pending after the change takes effect. This is a significant change, especially given the trend towards long-term plans purchased online, which will see claims roll over the next few years.
There are several other changes that will change the dynamics of the industry. But, unfortunately, no change will answer yes to the question I started writing. As most readers will understand, insurance companies work on the principle of risk grouping of people in similar situations. For example, let’s say there is a group of 100 professionals of the same age and there is a possibility that they will die during the year and the loss due to the death of an individual is Rs. 10 thousand. If each contributes Rs 10,000 and the money collected (Rs 10 lakh) is paid to the family of the deceased, it explains the insurance process. The insurance company acts only as an intermediary to calculate the slightly different risks faced by each individual and calculate the premium accordingly, add the profit margin and pay the claim. What can be said is that the claims are settled from the premiums collected from all the insured persons. If a person has a higher risk (for example due to a previous kidney transplant), all other members of the insurance group will compensate for that risk in the form of additional premiums if the person is included in the insurance group. So it is very unlikely that high risk individuals will be covered by the insurance group. The only option is the type of universal life insurance group that the government is talking about in connection with the Jan Dhan Yojana, where the increase in risk is minimal from the size of the group. This will be the only solution for such people.
