Mumbai, 01 June 2023: Aegon Life, Digital India’s life insurance company, has launched industry’s first policy that covers surrogate mothers and egg donors. This policy provides financial protection to their nominees in case of any complications or death resulting from surrogacy procedures.

The policy offers a three-year life cover for surrogate mothers and a one-year cover for egg donors, and is available through ART-registered fertility and surrogate clinics. Aegon Life has already provided coverage for over 100 surrogacy procedures this calendar year.
