National Health Claims Exchange: National Health Claims Exchange is being introduced to simplify health insurance claim settlement. This will not only benefit customers but also insurance companies.
Now you will not have to wait much for health insurance claims. Soon all health insurance claims will be processed by hospitals and insurance companies through a single window National Health Claim Exchange i.e. NHCX. This will speed up your claim settlement process.
Health Ministry sources said that the NHCX, developed by the National Health Authority (NHA), is ready and is currently undergoing trials. Sources said, “The portal is likely to be available across India from the time of launch. The government has initially linked about 50 insurance companies and 250 hospitals to it and gradually more hospitals and insurance providers will join it.”
Workshops and meetings with representatives of insurance companies and hospitals
Before preparing the NHCX portal, the NHA conducted workshops and meetings with representatives of various insurance companies and hospitals. After this, the NHCX portal has been prepared.
Health insurance claims through a single platform
Insurance companies have different portals, which makes it cumbersome for hospitals, patients and other parties to settle claims. In such a situation, once the government’s NHCX is launched, health insurance claims will be processed through a single platform. Hospitals and insurance companies will check on this platform and this will speed up the process of claims.
