It is written in my policy- "newborn coverage from day 1". How should I raise a claim for a newborn then?

In order to avail newborn baby coverage, the primary insured has to share their baby's details with the HR. In case you haven't decided on a name for the baby, you can share the following name with your company's HR, "baby of (name of parent)". The details required to be shared are as follows: 

  1. Baby's name 
  2. Date of Birth (DOB) along with birth certificate
  3. Gender
  4. Relationship with the primary insured
Once these details have been shared with the HR, these details will be added in the policy by our endorsement team. As soon as the baby has been added into the policy, the parent can raise a claim in the baby's name.
