A complete walkthrough of the IndusInd General health claim process.
IndusInd General Insurance (formerly Reliance General) processes its Health Gain claims through a 24/7 helpline (91 22 48903009) and an online claim portal on reliancegeneral.co.in. This guide covers the full workflow – cashless at network and Cashless Everywhere hospitals, reimbursement, and the escalation path if a claim is delayed or contested.
Pull your policy schedule – policy number, sum insured, members covered and plan name (Health Gain Plus, Health Gain) – and save the digital health card from the reliancegeneral.co.in portal; the hospital insurance desk asks for it at admission. Confirm chronic-condition disclosures (diabetes, hypertension, thyroid, cardiac history): voluntary disclosure via services@indusindinsurance.com is treated far better than one forced during a claim review. Network depth varies by city, so verify your preferred hospitals on the hospital locator before relying on them.
For planned admissions, call 91 22 48903009 at least 48 hours ahead with the policy number, hospital, procedure and cost estimate; the hospital insurance desk submits the pre-auth and IndusInd General settles directly at discharge, with final authorisation due within 3 hours of complete documents. In an emergency the patient is admitted first and the desk files the pre-auth within 24 hours – you pay only the standard refundable hospital deposit while treatment proceeds. If pre-auth stalls past the IRDAI SLA, call the helpline with the pre-auth reference and ask for a priority review.
Under IRDAI's Cashless Everywhere mandate (January 2024), IndusInd General processes cashless treatment at any hospital registered under the Clinical Establishments Act. Call 91 22 48903009 before you admit – at least 48 hours ahead for planned treatment, within 48 hours of admission in an emergency – and IndusInd General issues a guarantee of payment to the hospital once the pre-auth is approved. Settlement at discharge works like a network claim, and later claims at the same hospital typically run faster.
Paid out of pocket, or cashless was denied at the counter? File online via the reliancegeneral.co.in claim portal, by post to the IndusInd General claims processing centre, or at a branch – within the filing window on your policy schedule and with the full document set below. IndusInd General must decide the claim within 30 days of receiving complete documents.
Once a claim is registered, IndusInd General Insurance Co. Ltd. gives it a claim or intimation number, and that number is what every status channel asks for. Keep it with the policy number and track the claim on the IndusInd General claims portal, or call 91 22 48903009. A cashless request usually moves within hours; a reimbursement claim is measured in days, and the insurer has 15 days from the last document to decide, or 45 where it orders an investigation.
If the status has not moved for several days, or it reads “query raised” without anyone telling you what is missing, that is the point to stop waiting and start the escalation ladder. A query is not a rejection - it is a request for a document, and claims are lost by leaving them unanswered.

The 24/7 cashless and claim helpline is 91 22 48903009. Email queries go to services@indusindinsurance.com, and the reliancegeneral.co.in claim portal handles claim filing, status tracking and document upload – keep your policy number and claim reference handy for the fastest response.
Per the IRDAI Master Circular 2024: cashless authorisation within 1–3 hours; final authorisation within 3 hours of complete documentation; reimbursement decided within 30 days of complete documents.
Most counter denials are reversible. Get the denial in writing, call the helpline, and ask whether the claim can be re-submitted with additional documentation from the treating doctor. If the denial is final, switch to the reimbursement track – pay the bill, keep the denial letter and file post-discharge. Full plan: Cashless Pre-Auth Denied Playbook.
The same cashless and reimbursement workflow applies across IndusInd General's health plans, including Health Gain Plus and Health Gain. Plans differ in sub-limits, room-rent terms and waiting periods, not the claim process – your policy schedule is the source of truth for plan-level caps.
