15 March 2023, Bengaluru: Go Digit General Insurance, one of India’s fastest growing insurance company*, launched three new plans under Digit Health Insurance policy to further strengthen its health insurance portfolio.

What the three plans will offer:
- Infinite Sum Insured with Digit Infinity Wallet Plan
The Digit Infinity Wallet plan will help take care of the rising medical costs with an option of unlimited back-up sum insured (SI) being offered to customers. This will allow people to make multiple claims within the same policy year. However, any single claim cannot exceed the SI under the policy and the backup SI will only get triggered after the SI is exhausted.
- The back-up sum insured will get triggered from Day 1 and there will be no exhaustion clause.
- This will allow people to use their sum insured multiple times in a single year. However, any single claim cannot exceed the SI under the policy and the backup SI will only get triggered after the SI is exhausted.
- Double Sum Insured with Digit Double Wallet Plan
The Digit Double Wallet Plan will give the policyholders an option of double back-up sum insured. This will give customers access to double the sum insured (SI) opted by them in the same policy year in the form of backup SI.
