HDFC Life International has introduced a fresh cashless health plan tailored explicitly for Indian students who are pursuing education overseas, in response to the increasing healthcare expenses in popular student hubs like the UK, USA, Canada, Germany, and Australia. The premium for this plan must be paid in US dollars.
Specially crafted for students aged between 12 and 40 currently studying abroad or looking to do so in the future, the global student health policy offers extensive coverage. HDFC Life International, operating from its Gift City IFSC unit, is spearheading this innovative approach. This unit serves as the inaugural overseas branch of HDFC International Life and Re, a life and health reinsurer headquartered in DIFC, Dubai.
