Plan Highlights

Backed by India's largest bank, Arogya Supreme delivers broad coverage, unlimited restoration, and competitive pricing under one trusted brand.

Unlimited Restoration Benefit

If your sum insured is exhausted mid-year, it is fully restored an unlimited number of times for unrelated illnesses in the same policy year. Your family never runs out of cover.

SBI Brand Trust

SBI General is backed by State Bank of India, India's largest public sector bank. The brand trust and financial stability provide significant policyholder confidence.

14,000+ Network Hospitals

One of the largest hospital networks among mid-premium plans, ensuring cashless access across metro, tier-2, and tier-3 cities throughout India.

No Room Rent Sub-limit

Any room category can be chosen during hospitalisation. No proportional deductions are applied to associated charges, avoiding the most common source of claim disputes.

International Emergency Cover

Emergency medical hospitalisation outside India is covered, providing protection for policy holders who travel internationally for work or leisure.

Organ Transplant Covered

Both the recipient's treatment and the donor's hospitalisation expenses during organ harvesting are covered, significantly reducing the out-of-pocket cost of transplant surgeries.

No Co-payment on Renewals

Unlike some plans that impose co-payment at higher ages upon renewal, Arogya Supreme has no co-payment clause, keeping your effective out-of-pocket costs predictable for life.

Critical Illness Rider Available

An optional critical illness rider can be added for a lump sum payout on diagnosis of listed critical conditions, supplementing the hospitalisation cover.

Who Should Buy Arogya Supreme?

Arogya Supreme strikes a strong balance between price, network, and coverage breadth.

SBI Account Holders Seeking Convenience

Existing SBI customers benefit from a seamless purchase and renewal experience, with premium payments directly from their SBI account and familiar brand support.

Families Wanting Restoration Safety Net

Unlimited restoration ensures that a family with multiple hospitalisations in a year never exhausts their cover. Ideal for large families or those with elderly dependents.

Frequent International Travellers

International emergency cover provides a baseline of protection abroad at no extra cost, suitable for those who travel frequently but do not need full-scale international treatment cover.

Long-Term Policyholders Worried About Co-payment

With no co-payment at any renewal age, Arogya Supreme remains cost-predictable even as policyholders age into their 50s and 60s, unlike plans that introduce co-pay at renewal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about SBI General Arogya Supreme, answered plainly.

Suppose you have a ₹10L sum insured and a family member's hospitalisation exhausts the full ₹10L. The restoration benefit immediately reinstates the full ₹10L for other family members (or for the same member for a different, unrelated illness). This can happen an unlimited number of times within the same policy year, ensuring your family is never left unprotected mid-year.
Yes. SBI General Arogya Supreme does not impose a co-payment clause at any age, including at renewal. Many health insurance plans introduce a 20% co-payment when the insured person reaches 60 or 65 years at renewal. Arogya Supreme's absence of any co-payment makes it particularly cost-effective for long-term policyholders who intend to continue coverage into their senior years.
International emergency cover under Arogya Supreme covers acute, unforeseen hospitalisation required while travelling abroad due to accidents or sudden illness. It does not cover planned treatment abroad, elective procedures, or treatment for pre-existing conditions outside India. For comprehensive international treatment coverage, consider Tata AIG Medicare Premier. Confirm specific country exclusions and claim procedures with a Policy Aid advisor before travel.
Yes. SBI General Insurance is a separate entity from State Bank of India but is backed by the SBI Group. You do not need to be an SBI bank account holder to purchase Arogya Supreme. However, existing SBI customers may benefit from preferred distribution channels, digital integration with SBI YONO, and potentially simplified documentation for policy issuance.
