COVID-19 had a Minimal Impact on Private Health Insurance Market

COVID-19 impacted various manufacturing and service providing industries in the year 2020-2021 as it led to the closure of workplaces, disruption of supply chains, and restrictions on transportation. Though, the imbalance between demand and supply and its impact on pricing is considered short-term and is expected to recover as this pandemic comes to an end. Due to outbreak of covid19 throughout the globe, the demand for private health insurance has increased tremendously. Also, the fear of pandemic and the increased cost for medical services helped the health insurance market grow during pandemic. In addition, health insurance companies introduced packages and solutions for covering the medical costs for treating covid19 infected insurers. Thus, even though the other industries suffered a lot during covid19 outbreak, the private health insurance industry was growing significantly.

The Market Dynamics of the Private Health Insurance Market Include:

Drivers/Opportunities

• Increasing cost of medical services

Health insurance provides financial support in cases of serious sickness or accident. Increasing medical services’ costs for surgeries and hospital stays has created a new financial epidemic worldwide. The cost of medical services is comprised of the cost of surgery, doctor fee, hospital stay cost, cost of the emergency room, and diagnostic testing cost, among others. Therefore, this increase in the cost of medical services propels the market's growth.

• Growing number of daycare procedures

Daycare procedures are those types of medical procedure or surgery that primarily requires less stay time in the hospitals. In the daycare procedure, patients must stay in the hospital for a short period. Most of the health insurance companies are now covering daycare procedures in their insurance plans, and for the claim of such types of surgery, there is no compulsion on spending 24 hours in the hospital, which is the minimum stay in the hospital claim insurance. While most health insurance plans cover hospital stays and major surgeries, the policyholders can also claim daycare procedures under their health insurance policy, which propels the demand of the market.

• Mandatory opting for health insurance in public and private sector

Buying a healthcare insurance policy is a mandatory provision for employees in the public and private sectors. Health insurance offers key medical benefits which the employee can avail of while working in a corporate. In case of any emergency or medical issues, the health insurance cover is highly useful to meet treatment expenses. The employee’s health insurance is an extended benefit the individual employer gives to their employees. The health insurance provided covers with the employee and covers their family members under the same policy plan. Also, in certain cases, the employer may pay a part of a premium or insurance coverage of the health insurance policy.

• Increasing old age population

Old age people are likely to get sicker or have health problems due to ageing and weak immune system such as dental issues, heart issues, cancer issues and terminal illness. A good senior citizen health insurance can help senior citizens to opt for good health insurance services to reduce future financial worries. Thus increasing number of old age population can boost the demand for health insurance market.

• Increasing awareness about the benefits of health insurance

In the face of a medical emergency, health insurance allows the consumers to take their mind off the stress related to healthcare costs and focus on the treatment instead with health insurance. Medical emergencies can happen at any time, regardless of our current good health or disciplined lifestyle. Therefore, it is important to plan for and protect our families and ourselves from any unforeseen medical situations, especially when there are elderly parents at home as they are more susceptible to infections or other illnesses.

Restraints/Challenges faced by the Private Health insurance Market

It provides financial support to the policyholder since it covers all the medical expenses when the policyholder is hospitalized for the treatment.
