I have a serious illness, can I get Travel Insurance?

This depends on a number of factors which an insurer would need to consider. As you might expect, the lead factor is the type of condition you have, whether it is stable or poses any logistical problems associated with travel. As an example, if you have a circulation problem, it is not advisable to consider a long-haul trip as this will almost certainly cause problems.

In addition to this factor, other aspects such as:
  • Where you are travelling to?
  • What you will be doing once arrived?
  • Are faclities acceptable should you be taken ill?
In addition to this, the provider may ask for further information to confirm the severity of the medical condition disclosed. As well as this, it is common practice to ask whether your GP or Specialist considers you fit-to-fly, and are they prepared to put this n writing.

We see some quite scary premiums offered to those with existing medical conditions, it is a shame to say that some people will buy cover out of desperation. However as more and more insurers become more switched on to this market, gaining experience along the way, they are prepared to consider aspects otherwise excluded. It is worth shopping around...

We at Essential Health took the steps a couple of years ago to use a dedicated provider for this type of insurance. Based purely upon their skills, experience, know how and can-do approach to covering travellers... we have not regretted it, and in doing so made a lot of people very happy...

Call us on 0845 408 5444 and ask about travel cover for those with medical conditions.

The policy is designed to cover all and any conditions disclosed, and provides real peace of mind to those wishing to travel overseas...
