Do you have pre-existing medical conditions?
To ensure the cover is right for you, you'll need to let us know if you have any pre-existing medical conditions when you apply for cover.
We can cover many conditions, so please contact us to discuss your requirements.
If we are unable to cover any medical conditions, you can refer to a directory of insurers who specialise in providing travel insurance cover, including cover for more serious medical conditions.
