- The corona epidemic has had an impact on the economic condition of the people. Insurance penetration in the country is low. The cost of treatment in hospitals is increasing. In the midst of all these things, IRDA has taken this step. Gurdeep Singh, head of retail underwriting at Bajaj Allianz General Insurance, said that this is a welcome move. The vaccine of Covid-19 is yet to come. The purpose of these policies is to cover the treatment of corona. Due to the epidemic, there is a danger of this.

This step will bring more people under the purview of insurance. They will also be able to get treatment for major diseases like cancer, heart disease.
