Is my health insurance policy valid if I am hospitalized for less than a day?

Your medical insurance policy mandates a minimum 24-hour hospitalization to claim expenses. But some insurers cover day care treatment that does not need 24-hour hospitalization and these include dialysis, chemotherapy, eye surgery, dental surgery, kidney stone removal, hernia repair and a number of other procedures where advanced technology eliminates the need for 24-hour hospitalization.
