Does Care Health Insurance Cover Endoscopy and Colonoscopy?

Hello,

For endoscopy and colonoscopy, you should consult a Gastroenterologist. The doctor will first review the symptoms and medical history and then decide whether an upper GI endoscopy, colonoscopy, or both are actually required.

About Care Health Insurance

If the patient has Care Health Insurance, endoscopy and colonoscopy is covered depending on the specific insurance policy, medical indication, network hospital and whether the procedure is being done as part of covered hospitalisation/day-care treatment.

Before booking the procedure, check with the Care Health Insurance network hospital and confirm cashless eligibility, pre-authorisation and the exact coverage under your policy. Care Health Insurance provides a network-hospital search for checking cashless providers.

What to carry

• Care Health Insurance policy/e-card

• Aadhaar or valid ID

• Gastroenterologist's prescription

• Previous medical reports

• Blood test reports, if available

• Previous endoscopy/colonoscopy reports, if any

• Current medicines and prescriptions

• Any previous discharge summary

For colonoscopy, the doctor will provide specific bowel-preparation instructions, and for upper GI endoscopy, fasting is generally required before the procedure. Follow the hospital's instructions carefully.
