Several players operate in the Indian Health Insurance Industry, which still holds a vast potential for new companies. While the Indian companies have somewhat failed to understand the health insurance needs of Indians, foreign insurance firms are doing quite well in this environment. However, the foreign players are not operating independently in India, and are present only via joint ventures. This has helped them identify the nature of the health insurance market and prepare policies that appeal to the people. In addition, some of the foreign companies announced their plans to enter the Indian arena, with the final thoughts going into the form of penetration that would be most suitable for them.

According to our research report, "Booming Health Insurance in India", health insurance is the second largest segment in the Indian non-life insurance industry. It has picked up pace in previous fiscals, and is set to reach new heights in the coming few years as public and private insurers are coming up with various schemes to cover the untapped insurance market. As per our latest findings, the Indian health insurance industry is one of the most prolific ones in the world. As the healthcare costs and awareness are rising in the country, we expect the segment to grow with gross premiums scaling up at a CAGR of around 32.5% during 2010-11 to 2013-14.

According to the study, health insurance portability is also gaining popularity in India as it allows health insurance policyholders to switch companies while retaining their no-claims benefit.
