Why Should I Choose a No Sublimit Plan?
The key benefits of choosing a no sublimit plan are
- Comprehensive coverage.
- Tension free trips to overseas.
- Full coverage of unforeseen medical and non medical expenses.
- Suitable for seniors.
- Out of pocket expenses is nil or minimum.
What Does “Without Sublimits” Meaning in Travel Insurance?
In overseas travel medical insurance, without sublimit means the insurance company covers for your medical expenses up to the limit mentioned in the policy schedule. If you are holding a policy which is comprehensive. Then you are covered up to the limits for that eligible medical claim or non medical claim.
You can understand this how it works with an example.
Let us assume that you have travel medical insurance which covers $100,000 for your medical expenses without any medical sublimits. There is a admissible claim with this policy of $25,000. The break up of medical expenses is listed below.
- Xray and lab tests = $2,500
- Surgery = $12,000
- Room rent = $1,500 for 3 days
As you have a policy with no sublimit and claim is payable, then the insurance company pays you 100% of the claim amount i.e.$19,000. If the benefit has a deductible, then deductible amount should be paid by you, before the insurance company settles the claim.
Comprehensive Travel Insurance by Tata AIG
Most Indian overseas mediclaim insurance plans offer comprehensive coverage (without sublimits) only up to a certain age. After this threshold age, most "travel insurance plans have sublimits", which means older travel insurance coverage is very limited.
TATA AIG has introduced the travel guard insurance plan which includes comprehensive coverage without sublimits for senior citizens and is available up to the age of 99 years. This 'no sub-limit' plan is more expensive but offers exclusive coverage which can make all the difference in case of a huge medical expense while outside India. The TATA AIG visitor insurance plan also provides coverage for pre-existing conditions in life threatening conditions up to USD 20,000.
What Is the Difference Between a Limit and a Sublimit?
With the simple comparison we can understand in a better way.
| Parameter | Limit | Sublimit |
|---|---|---|
| Definition | Limit is the overall maximum amount your policy will pay for covered expenses. | A sublimit is a specific cap on how much you can claim for certain benefits within that overall policy limit |
| Example | A Tata AIG policy with $50,000 for medical expenses means all eligible medical expenses combined together during your trip. | A Tata AIG policy with $50,000 for medical expenses with sublimit on room rent $2,000 per day and maximum 2 days, Surgery $10,000. If there is surgery bill of $12,000. You will get only $10,000 as there is a caping on surgery. |
Advantages & Disadvantages of Buying Without Sublimits Travel Insurance
Advantages
- Comprehensive Coverage: You can get complete insurance benefit amount for any covered claim without worrying about specific limits of any category. If you have a policy has $50,000 medical coverage, then you can use full amount for any single medical claim.
- No out of pocket expenses: With the no sublimit plan, there are very less chancess that you have to make payment for the expenses you incurred from your pocket.
- Simple claims process: Since you are having without sublimits plans and capping involved, then claims process and settlement will be easy.
- Better for High-Cost Destinations: Typically when you are traveling to countries where cost of living and medical treatment is very high. It is good to buy plan without sublimit plan. For example when you are traveling to USA, better to have comprehensive plan.
- Suitable for Elderly parents: When you are elderly parents are traveling overseas, they are at high risk of falling sick or more prone to unforeseen medical emergencies. Hence it is advisable parents should buy without sublimit plan.
Disadvantages
- Higher premiums: Premiums of without sublimit plans are little higher when compared to plans with capping in benefits.
- Not All Risks Covered: Even no sublimit plans do not cover all the risks for example pre-existing medical conditions are covered only for a limited amount and under life threatening situations only.
- Potential for Over-Insurance: If your trips to overseas is short, you are healthy with no pre-existing medical history or visiting countries with affordable healthcare. Then you might feel of being over insured and spent extra money which you were not supposed to.
- Potential for Overuse or Abuse: With no sublimits plans, there are high chances that misuse of this insurance like fraudulent claims might happen. This might lead to stricter underwriting rules or increase in premiums
Who & When Should You Opt for No-Sublimit Coverage?
The no-sublimit travel insurance from Tata AIG offers maximum medical protection abroad by covering eligible expenses up to the total policy limit—without restricting room rent, surgery, or diagnostics. This type of coverage is ideal in the following situations:
| Situation | Why It's Recommended |
|---|---|
| Senior travelers (age 50+) | Higher risk of medical emergencies and hospitalization. Strongly recommended. |
| Pre-existing or chronic conditions | Safer option to avoid out-of-pocket costs for hospital stays or urgent care. |
| Travel to high-cost countries (USA, UK, Canada, Europe) | Medical treatment is expensive—even basic care. No-sublimit plans offer better coverage. |
| Frequent or long-term international travel | Increased exposure to health risks over time. Full coverage without internal caps is ideal. |
| Short trips to nearby/low-cost countries (Asia, ≤15 days) | No-sublimit cover is optional, depending on your health and risk tolerance. |
| Travelers concerned about quality care | Ensures access to better hospitals without worrying about capped benefits. |
Choosing a no-sublimit travel insurance policy means simpler claims processing, higher financial protection, and peace of mind — especially for high-risk or high-cost travel situations.
How Do These Sublimits in TATA AIG Travel Insurance Plans Work?
Sublimits are specific caps on certain benefits in a travel insurance plan. They are part of the overall sum insured and do not provide extra coverage; instead, they set a maximum amount payable for specific medical expenses. Sublimits can be a fixed dollar amount or a percentage of the coverage.
In TATA AIG travel insurance, sublimits usually apply to travelers aged 56 years and above. Certain benefits, such as hospital room rent, surgery, ICU, ambulance, and diagnostic tests, may have a maximum limit.
For example:- You need surgery costing $12,000, but your plan has a surgery sublimit of $10,000.
- The insurance company will pay $10,000, even though you have a higher sum insured.
Factors to Consider Before Choosing a No Sublimit Plan
If you select a TATA AIG travel insurance policy without sub-limits, please be aware of the following:- Higher Costs: Travel insurance policies without sub-limits may be more expensive than travel insurance policies that represent a similar level of coverage; however, policies without sub-limits will typically offer broader coverage with fewer restrictions in a medical emergency.
- Underwriting or Disclosures: If you are over age 65, during the underwriting process, insurers may ask for more medical information on a case-by-case basis.
- Deductibles and Copays: Standard deductibles or copays could still apply even if there are no sub-limits on your policy.
- Limits of coverage: It is important to clarify the scope of no sub-limits in medical treatment, etc. For instance, it is important to clarify if the no sub-limits is for all medical expenses (room rents, ICU, diagnostics, surgery, etc.) or in relation to specific types of benefits.
- Age of Owner, and Health Conditions: If the insured is older than a certain age and/or if there are known health conditions that require disclosure, clarify if there are limits to either situation for coverage.
- Policy Exclusions: As with almost all plans, there are treatments that are not covered, even with normal travel insurance plans; examples include treatment for adventure sports that are excluded or routine preventative checkups that may be less relevant to travel in general.
