When I first saw this question, I smiled because I used to think insurance was just another forced expense. Nothing feels urgent until something actually goes wrong.

A couple of years ago, a medical situation in my family made me realize how fragile finances can be. Hospital bills don't wait for savings to catch up, and even decent employer insurance has limits that show up very quickly in real life. That's when I started looking beyond “having a policy” to understanding whether my cover was actually strong enough.

I came across BimaScore during that phase. What helped was not sales talk, but a simple clarity rating between 400–100

One thing I've realised after dealing with health insurance for a few years is that the “disadvantage” usually isn't insurance itself, but how little we understand it when we buy it.

On paper, most policies look similar. The problems show up later — room rent limits, sub-limits on treatments, long waiting periods, or exclusions you never noticed. Premiums can also rise over time, and if you only rely on a basic cover, today's medical costs can quickly make the sum insured feel inadequate.

I went through this confusion myself, which is why I tried BimaScore and Bima Analyze. What helped me was getting a simple clarity rating (betwee

Yes. GIBS Business School in Bangalore does offer PGDM in Finance.

The PGDM programme lets you choose specializations, and Finance is one of the main options many students pick. It focuses on money management, financial planning, investment, banking, and all the things you need to become a finance professional.

So if you want to build a career in finance, banking, investment, or related fields, GIBS definitely has a PGDM stream that supports that path in a practical, student-friendly way.

When I first tried to understand what actually means, it felt a lot more confusing than it should have been. On paper, it sounds simple—cover medical expenses—but in real life the details matter a lot more than people realize.

The main issue I've seen is that many people buy a policy thinking any hospital bill will be covered, only to discover limits, sub-limits, room rent rules, or exclusions when a claim actually comes up. That gap between expectation and reality is where most frustration comes from. I went through this learning curve myself.

What helped me was stepping back and evaluating policies based on how strong and usable th

PIBM is a reasonable option for Finance, Marketing, and Business Analytics, especially for students who value practical exposure. Finance and Marketing benefit from case studies, live projects, and interview-focused training, while Business Analytics offers a foundation in data tools and real-world problem-solving. Overall, it works well for students who actively use the opportunities provided.

When I first looked for the best health insurance college in India, I honestly assumed there would be a clear top university that everyone recommended. But what I discovered is that the field doesn't have a single “best college” in the traditional sense — especially because health insurance sits at the intersection of insurance, healthcare management, and risk analysis. Most reputable paths involve programs in insurance & risk management or healthcare management/administration rather than a standalone “health insurance university.”

Institutes like Insurance Institute of India, Institute of Insurance and Risk Management (IIRM)
