CASHLESS EVERYWHERE

Cashless Everywhere is an enhancement to the health insurance policy that allows you to access

cashless medical treatment not only at hospitals within the insurance company’s network but also at
hospitals outside the network. This means that you won’t have to pay upfront for medical expenses

at a wider range of hospitals, subject to certain conditions. Instead, the insurance company will

settle the bill directly with the hospital, making the process smoother and easier for you.

We are glad to announce that, in our continued commitment to enhancing access under our Health

Insurance Policy, we are providing “Cashless Everywhere”. Policyholders can now benefit from the
'Cashless Anywhere' facility, enabling them to seek medical care in any hospital without upfront
payment.

1)For planned admissions, notify GALAXY HEALTH INSURANCE at least 72 hours before the ad
mission date via letter, email, or fax. Include the patient's name, hospital name, policy number, and tr
eatment plan. For cashless requests, email anywherecashless@galaxyhealth.com or call our toll-
free number 18002030007.

2)For emergency admissions, submit a cashless request within 24 hours of admission. Inform

GALAXY HEALTH INSURANCE in writing (letter, email, or fax) with the patient’s name,

hospital name, policy number, and treatment plan. For cashless requests, email

anywherecashless@galaxyhealth.com or call our toll-free number 18002030007.

3)The hospital must adhere to the policy's terms and meet the definition of a "hospital." The
insurance company has the final decision on cashless benefits approval for any hospital. The
hospitals which are flagged as excluded provider or blacklisted in the IIB portal will not be
entertained for the cashless facility.

4) The cashless facility is available only for treatments covered by the policy. The Pre-
Authorization form must be completed and signed by both the insured person and the

hospital, and submitted with all necessary documents, including a copy of the insured

person's ID.
5) Hospitals outside the company's network must provide a consent letter to extend the
cashless facility.

6) The company reserves the right to deny cashless requests. If a request is denied, the
customer may submit documents after treatment, but the claim will be subject to the
policy's terms and conditions.
