Going on holiday? Make sure your Travel Insurance covers Joint Replacement

Getting Travel Insurance is essential to every holiday, especially if you have a pre-existing medical condition.

As soon as you book your holiday, you should secure Travel Insurance. Medical issues can arise at any time, and without the right Travel Insurance, unexpected cancellation of your trip or managing unforeseen emergency medical costs abroad can be challenging.

Each country has different healthcare systems, and what may be covered at home might not be affordable abroad. If you’ve had a joint replacement, declaring this in your Travel Insurance means you’re protected financially if you do experience any sudden issues while abroad.

In the event of needing emergency treatment abroad related to your insured condition, you’ll be able to access the right medical treatment and care with specialised Travel Insurance.
