Interestingly, much of the health insurance sales logged by non-life insurers are from active life insurance agents. Realising the advantages, other life insurers are planning to get into the health insurance segment in a big way.

According to S.V. Mony, secretary general, Life Insurance Council of India, many life insurers are seriously looking at health insurance segment for more business. Experts also point out life insurers would be able to get a good mix of policyholders, both young and middle-aged. On the other hand, non-life insurers mostly get middle-aged or older persons as policyholders, thereby increasing the chances of a claim.

The interest shown by life insurers in selling health insurance products have started worrying non-life players, more so the standalone health insurers like Star Health and Allied Insurance Co Ltd. "It is going to be tough for companies like us," remarked V. Jagannathan, chairman and managing director, Star Health.

However, industry consultants say that non-life insurers can partner with life insurers to increase their market share.
