When health insurance was developed initially, it was meant only to cover a person’s hospitalisation and surgical expenses. It has since then evolved steadily in its effort to take care of all the health problems that customers may face. Surgical treatments of haemorrhoids, tonsil removal, cystoscopic removal of stones, and so on were not covered by traditional health insurance plans until a few years earlier, but are taken care of under day care benefit by most plans today. In some areas, such as OPD (out-patient department) cover, however, limitations remain.
