MCB (Muslim Commercial Bank) Pakistan has started a scheme in which when one will go on hajj via there scheme he/she will be eligible for 4 months of free health (hadsaati) insurance, my question is "is this interest or not"? is this halal? will it affect hajj or not?

You need to add more detail. What is MCB? What type of insurance? Country? And most importantly, you need to rephrase your question so that it's on topic of the study of Islam. – user921 Apr 17 '15 at 3:36
Most of scholars without any doubt agree that all tyep of insurance is haram. Every type of action, in which there is gambling or un-certainty involved, it to be avoided. and It is Best not to take any loan/insurance from Bank, as banks work only on interest and interest is haram.
Please follow this ruling: http://islamqa.info/en/8889

obviously, when you will be enrolled for insurance, for first 4 months it will be free, but after that you/they MUST PAY to continue their insurance policy. so insurance is wrong now and after 4 months too. it is better to avoid it, to avoid inulding in haram act. – user12159 Apr 17 '15 at 10:35
