My mother took Senior Citizen Red Carpet Policy
(Coverage: 2 Lac; P/161119/01/2009/000073) from Star Health. In 2008, when she took policy, she declared that she has Blood Pressure. In March,2010, multiple blocks in her heart was detected and accordingly she underwent open heart surgery. She spent around Rs. 260,000/- in this process. She submitted all the papers to Star Health. Today, I came to know that they have rejected the claim (#8713) and mentioned the reason "patient was symptomatic prior to inception of star policy".
My mother felt cheated now as she paid hefty amount to these people in last 2 years and they rejected the claim when she really need it. It looks like Start health is only interested in collecting the insurance (May be, this is the reason for selling it Cheap)?
What is the legal way to handle this issue ? Can anybody guide me ?
