 There are two types of claims - cashless claims and reimbursement claims. Both work differently. 

• Cashless claims - In the cashless claims option, the insurer directly makes payment to the network hospital with you paying a minimal amount. For this to be possible, you must visit a network hospital that’s a part of your provider’s network hospital. Your group health plan must cover the condition you or your family member is diagnosed with. 
• Reimbursement claims - In this process, you can visit any hospital of your choice, undergo treatment, and make the payment as usual. After your discharge, you can contact your insurer and file for a reimbursement claim along with the necessary documents. Upon approval, the amount will be transferred to your account.

Not all illnesses require hospitalization. OPD (Outpatient Department) expenses are costs like dental procedures where you visit a clinic or hospital for treatment, get treatment/medicines and you’re back to good health in a few days. Typically, such expenses are minimal, and they’re not covered in group health insurance policies.  

Not all medical expenses are covered by group health insurance plans. Therefore, when you make a claim, there are some deductions because of non-admissible services or items. For example, certain services like admission fees, registration fees, etc. do not fall under the umbrella of coverage. Hence, as the insured, you need to pay for some non-medical or payable expenses. In comparison with reimbursement claims, these costs are minimal.

We will send every employee an email about the details of their policy and card, which they can access from the Loop app. To self-onboard, you need to download the Loop app.
