The 116th GI Council Meeting was Chaired by Mr. Tapan Kumar Singhel, Chairman GI Council , MD & CEO Bajaj Allianz General Insurance Company Limited.

24th January 2024: General and health insurance companies provide coverage to millions of citizens through health insurance policies. In the event of hospitalization, policyholders need not pay for treatment out of pocket with a cashless facility where insurance companies commit to covering the treatment costs at the hospital, provided the claim is admissible. This cashless facility is currently available only at hospitals where the respective insurance company has an agreement or tie-ups. If the policyholder chooses a hospital without such an agreement, the cashless facility is not offered, and the customer has to go for a reimbursement claim, further delaying the claim process.

A meeting of the Committee regarding Obligations of Insurers under sections 32B, 32C & 32D of the Insurance Act, 1938 was held in GI Council office
