What is consumables clause ?
Consumables are single-use medical items like gloves, syringes, masks, and bandages used during treatment. A consumables clause specifies whether these are covered.
Why is it important?
If your policy doesn't cover them, you may have to pay for these items yourself, which can add up to a significant amount even during a covered hospital stay.
