It also has a feature of aggregate deductibles in the policy wherein multiple claims during the policy period can be clubbed to cross the deductible amount and trigger the claim payout. The benefits can be availed in case of higher expenses over and above aggregate deductible limits and up to the sum insured in the policy.
