HDFC and Policybazaar have been partners in protection for years. The foundation of this partnership has been a shared passion for securing every Indian household on the financial front. The two brands have a legacy of co-creating products that address ground-level customer needs.Today, HDFC ERGO and Policybazaar came together to celebrate Health Insurance ka sabse bada sach with the relaunch of Optima Secure and Optima Restore.

The credibility of an insurance brand like HDFC ERGO, the relevance of these products, combined with the reach of Policybazaar in the remotest parts of the country make this the perfect new chapter in India’s Health Insurance story. 

Talking about the long-term friendship between Policybazaar and HDFC ERGO, Sarbvir Singh, Joint Group CEO at PB Fintech Ltd, said “I would like to welcome not only our insurance partners, but also our well-wishers and close friends, the HDFC ERGO team. Our relationship has stood the test of time and has only grown stronger. And with the relaunch of HDFC ERGO on our platform with these two amazing consumer-centric products, we will reach new heights together.”

After thanking the Policybazaar team for such a warm welcome, Anuj Tyagi, Joint Managing Director at HDFC ERGO General Insurance, said “The most important thing when it comes to health insurance is the promise we’re selling. Promise that we’ll be with you at the time of claims. Promise that no matter what happens, you can count on us. One of the products that we’re launching today, Optima Secure, is often referred to as ‘The Shehenshah of Health Insurance,’ and for all the right reasons. We hope you enjoy selling this product as much as we enjoyed creating it. Happy selling.”

Meanwhile, Tarun Mathur, Chief Business Officer, GI at Policybazaar, said, “We are not here for just another product launch. Today marks the day HDFC ERGO goes live on Policybazaar journey. This partnership, coupled up with these two products, is going to give phenomenal results.”
