A family health plan is a type of health insurance, which covers more than one member of a family for a fixed sum assured in exchange for a single annual premium. Such a policy provides assured coverage to two or more members of a family at the same time, in case they get hospitalized or an ailment is diagnosed.

A family health plan generally covers a family (you and your spouse along with up to 4 children) while some insurance companies allow you to include your parents in your existing health insurance policy.
