Waiting period in a Global Health Policy
A waiting period is the amount of time from policy start date, during which you and your dependants are not entitled to cover for a particular benefit. For example, if the waiting period for dental cover is 10 months, then once your policy has started, you cannot file any claims related to dental treatment for 10 months.
Most insurance companies will have a waiting period on maternity cover to prevent women taking out a Medical insurance Policy once they are already pregnant. Usually, the waiting period for maternity is between 10 to 12 months. A New Born Plan will also usually have a waiting period of 10 to 12 months from the start of a policy.
