We are pleased to confirm that we are now able to offer cover for pre-existing medical conditions on our new 'select'
policies subject to a brief assessment and where appropriate by collecting additional premiums.
Our purchase process online and in the call centre captures information that allows us to assess whether you are
eligible to buy a policy from us. During the process we will ask questions about the health of anyone you wish to
insure and anyone upon whose health your trip may depend. We can offer cover for a large variety of pre-existing
medical conditions subject to declaration, screening and where relevant the payment of an additional premium.
It is important that any questions presented through the sales process whether on line or within the call centre are
answered completely and accurately. If you or anyone you wish to insure has pre-existing medical conditions it is
essential that you inform us of all relevant medical conditions throughout the sales process as we do not offer
policies with partial cover.
For example if you suffer from asthma, eczema and high blood pressure, we must screen all three conditions, if you
declare two out of three conditions, cover in the event of a claim is likely to be declined for the conditions that
you have and have not declared.
We are open from 9am until 6pm Monday to Friday and from 9am until 2pm on a Saturday.
