Understanding the Limit of Indemnity (1:1) and Premium Details
The "Limit of Indemnity" is the maximum amount an insurance policy will pay for a covered claim, essential for defining the insurer's liability in malpractice cases.
In a "1:1" limit of indemnity, the coverage amount matches the premium paid. For instance, if a doctor pays a premium of INR 5,640, the limit of indemnity would be set at INR 1 Crore. This means that in the event of a claim, the insurer will cover up to INR 1 Crore of the associated costs.
Important Note on Premiums
The premium amounts listed are exclusive of Goods and Services Tax (GST). An additional 18% GST will be applied to the premium. Therefore, if the premium is INR 5,640, the total cost after adding GST would be:
Total Premium = INR 5,640 + (18% of INR 5,640)
Total Premium = INR 5,640 + INR 1,015.20
Total Premium = INR 6,656
Importance of Limit of Indemnity
Financial Protection: Understanding the limit helps policyholders know how much coverage they have against potential claims.
Risk Assessment: Doctors can evaluate their risk exposure and select a limit that aligns with their practice and potential liabilities.

Being aware of the limit of indemnity and total costs is crucial for healthcare professionals to make informed decisions about their indemnity insurance coverage.
Understanding the Deductible in Your Indemnity Insurance Policy
A "deductible" is the amount that the policyholder must pay out of pocket at the time of claim settlement. It is a way to share the risk between the insurer and the insured, helping to lower the overall cost of the policy.
In the context of the policy where the sum insured is INR 1 Crore, a deductible of INR 2,50,000 will apply. This means that in the event of a claim, the first INR 2,50,000 of the costs will be the responsibility of the doctor. The insurer will then cover the remaining amount up to the limit of indemnity, which is INR 1 Crore.
Example of How the Deductible Works
- Total Claim Amount: INR 10,00,000
- Deductible: INR 2,50,000
Calculation:
The doctor will pay the deductible of INR 2,50,000.
The insurer will then cover the remaining amount:
Insurer's Coverage:
INR 10,00,000 (total claim) - INR 2,50,000 (deductible) = INR 7,50,000
Importance of Understanding the Deductible
Financial Responsibility: Knowing the deductible helps policyholders understand their financial obligation in case of a claim.
Risk Management: Understanding the deductible aids doctors in assessing their risk and determining how much they can afford to pay before insurance coverage begins.
Overall, being aware of the deductible is essential for healthcare professionals to make informed decisions about their indemnity insurance and to prepare for any potential claims.
