The insurer found that over half a million Britons travelled abroad last year with a long-term medical complaint but did not inform their insurer, potentially invalidating any claim they may have needed to make.
Many travel insurance policies offer customers the opportunity to cover most medical conditions.
If you or a family member has a long-term medical condition, this is worth looking into. Good travel insurance can provide you with vital protection if you become ill whilst abroad. It’s important to be honest with your insurer.
The costs of medical treatment abroad can be exceptionally high. Not giving details of a pre-existing condition because you feel it’s not relevant could, in the event of an accident or further illness, prove very costly indeed.
As the travel market continues to grow, those with common medical conditions should be able to find a provider that offers fair and competitive cover. For those with more serious medical conditions there are specialist insurers available.
