a)One more option for retirees to join the scheme without domiciliary (OPD) cover
M/s United India Insurance Company has extended one more option to the eligible retirees and spouse of deceased retirees/deceased employees who have not opted earlier to IBA Group Medical Insurance policy, for joining IBA Group Mediclaim Policy without domiciliary cover.
b) Option to switchover to “Without Domiciliary Cover”
The retirees who are covered under “With Domiciliary (OPD) Cover” for the year 2016-17 which is expiring on 31.10.2017 are allowed to switch over to “Without Domiciliary Cover” if they desire so. However, option to switch over to “With Domiciliary (OPD) Cover” is not available to such retirees who had opted for Without Domiciliary Cover for the year 2016-17 which is expiring on 31.10.2017
(Another point to be noted here is that as per discussion held with CEO of IBA on 4 th Oct,17,by AIBRF delegation, it was clarified by IBA that at no stage insurance related issues of retirees including renewal premium for 2017-18 have been discussed by IBA with the insurance company/ broking firm so far, and IBA has not approved any Super TOP policy and advised to member banks!)
Whatever it may be ,retirees can have their own decision on these matters,to have a Health Policy.

Please also consider on following points.
All the informations are ok.But one should think of the situation regarding opting for Top Up Policy from UIIC or NIIc
From NIIC by paying same premium one can take 1 lac more Top Up policy this year, but next year premium will be more
NIIC Policy will be issued NIIC A/C AIBRF. AIBRF still not clarified whether it can be taken by Non-Members of AIBRF.
From UIIC premium same but covers 1 lac less, Premium may hike next year.
One has to opt out from top Up Policy of UIIC if he/she has to take NIIC Policy.Next year onwards not eligible for UIIC,despite the enhanced Premium is less than that of NIIC.
Policy will be issued UIIC A/c IBA.
There is difference betwwen IBA and AIBRF.
plz think before final option, time is still there minimum 10/12 days.

Dear Friends,
It is to be noted that the renewal of IBA Group Medi Claim Insurance for retirees has to be done before 31st Oct'17,by providing required premium on or before the last date given by individual banks.
Some banks have given dates as 25th Oct and it would be better to keep sufficient balance in account so that renewal takes place smoothly.Follow the guidelines of respective banks of each one.
Few banks have offered Loan for premium amount as done in last year .Since Top Up Policy is new one Application for joining the Scheme to be submitted as per bank's format.
Those who have not taken the policy earlier have an option this year to join under the Scheme which please note.
1. Super TOP-UP Policy under United India Insurance Policy..
Coverage : Retired Officers : 4,00,000.00 + 5,00,000.00 = 9,00,000.00
Total premium to be paid: Rs.16443+Rs.3806=Rs.20249.
Retired Award Staff : 3,00,000.00 + 4,00,000.00 = 7,00,000.00
Total Premium.Rs.1 2333+Rs.3501.=Rs.15834
If with domiciliary cover premium may be at Rs.36998 plus Rs.3806 and Rs.27850+ Rs.3501 respectively for officers and award staff.
2.Under AIBRF Super top policy total coverage would be Rs.400000(Base Policy of UIICO)plus Rs.600000=Rs.10,00,000.for officers with a premium of Rs. 3806 for top up policy .Advantage can be seen here.
In this case cheque to be sent with format to TPA of New India Assurance Co Ltd.,for top up cover.
Under UIICO base as well as top up policy premium will be debited by bank from individual accounts.
Friends,Health Insurance Cover is a must for every retirees and top up cover is certainly another advantage.
Take your own decision before due date and ensure proper health cover on available policies.
Also note that this year IBA has not discussed with Insurance co on fixing renewal premium on base policy for retirees and IBA has no role in terms or premium on top up policies of UIICO/NI ACO.
(This is just for information and check up with bank /AIBRF circulars for details)
