TTK Healthcare TPA Private Limited

The concept of TPA or the THIRD PARTY ADMINISTRATOR has been introduced by IRDA (Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority) for the benefit of both the insured and the insurer. While the insured is benefited by quicker & better service, insurers are benefited by reduction in their administrative costs, fraudulent claims and ultimately bringing down the claim ratios. In brief, the job of the TPA is to maintain databases of policyholders and issue them identity cards with unique identification numbers and handle all the post policy issues including claim settlements. In terms of infrastructure, the TPA will need to run a 24-hour toll-free number, which can be accessed from anywhere in the country. And they will have full-time medical practitioners under their employment who will immediately take a decision on whether the ailment is covered under the policy Advantages of TPA
1. The policyholder will have full freedom to choose the hospitals from the empanelled network and utilise the services as per his/her choice
For every hospitalisation, the policyholder will be well aware whether the treatment he/she is to undergo is covered under his policy or not. If covered, then he/she can seek cashless facility without having to pay a single rupee at any of empanelled hospitals.During the time of Emergency Hospitalisation, the policyholder or relative can flash the Photo ID Card of the policyholder and gain admission into any of our network hospitals.
2. Priority treatment at hospital is given without any payment to be made at the any time of admission. So also at the time of discharge, no payments to be made. Thus, a complete CASHLESS TREATMENT.
