Insurance & EMI
Knee replacement for arthritis is covered by almost all Indian health insurance policies, usually after the policy's waiting period for joint replacement (commonly 2-4 years) and subject to room-rent limits. Axten's cashless desk checks these clauses in advance, obtains pre-authorisation and tells you your exact out-of-pocket figure - if any - before admission.
0% EMI is available on knee replacement at Axten; a mid-range package of about Rs 2,30,000 works out to roughly Rs 19,200 per month over 12 months.
Our insurance desk files cashless pre-authorisation with all major insurers and TPAs on your behalf --- you focus on recovery, we handle the paperwork.
