Why Your Insurance Didn’t Pay Full Hospital Bill

Sub-limits are specific limits placed on certain expenses within a health insurance policy. Even if your total sum insured is high, the insurer may only pay up to a fixed amount for certain treatments, room rent, or procedures.

This can lead to claim shortfalls, where the policyholder must pay the remaining amount from their own pocket.
