Frequently Asked Questions About Pre-existing Medical Condition Travel Insurance
1. Why Do I Need Travel Insurance for Pre-existing Medical Conditions If I Have GHIC?
While the GHIC (The UK Global Health Insurance Card) can give you access to 'necessary healthcare' in EU countries, at the same price as citizens of that country, there are limitations on what the GHIC card can do. It doesn’t cover the cost of medical repatriation if needed and doesn’t offer financial protection for cancellation or other mishaps such as damage to your baggage or losing your passports.
2. Can I Still Get Cover If My Medical Condition Is Under Medical Investigation?
If your medical condition is currently under medical investigation or isn’t diagnosed, we’re unable to provide cover for you until your GP or medical practitioner has diagnosed your medical condition.
3. How Much Does Pre-Existing Medical Condition Travel Insurance Cost?
The cost of our Travel Insurance with existing medical condition cover is influenced by many factors including the level of cover you have chosen, your age, any pre-existing medical condition you have, holiday duration, and destination.
If you have added our sports cover or cruise cover to tailor your policy, this will also affect the price.
