Formula Used
The premium calculation is based on the following formula:
Premium Calculation Formula
Premium = (Sum Insured × Age Factor × Coverage Factor) / 12
Where:
- Sum Insured = Total coverage amount
- Age Factor = Average age factor based on family members' ages
- Coverage Factor = 0.0005 (standard multiplier for health insurance)
The age factor is calculated by taking the average age of all family members and applying a standard multiplier. Younger families typically pay lower premiums than older families.
Worked Example
Let's look at an example to see how the calculation works:
Example Calculation
Family of 4 members with ages 30, 28, 4, and 2:
- Average age = (30 + 28 + 4 + 2) / 4 = 15
- Age factor = 15 × 0.02 = 0.3
- Sum insured = $500,000
- Premium = ($500,000 × 0.3 × 0.0005) / 12 = $12.50 per month
This example shows that a family with younger members can get comprehensive coverage for just $12.50 per month.
Plan Comparison
Here's a comparison of different LIC health insurance plans based on typical coverage options:
| Plan Type | Coverage Amount | Monthly Premium (Family of 4) | Key Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic Plan | $200,000 | $6.50 | Hospitalization, outpatient care |
| Standard Plan | $500,000 | $12.50 | Includes basic plan + critical illness |
| Premium Plan | $1,000,000 | $25.00 | Comprehensive coverage including maternity |
This comparison shows how premiums increase with higher coverage amounts. Younger families can get more comprehensive coverage at lower costs.
