Going abroad? Make sure your Travel Insurance covers Kidney Cancer
Securing Travel Insurance when you go abroad is a crucial step of your holiday; without it, you could face managing high medical bills by yourself.
If you have a pre-existing medical condition, such as kidney cancer, it’s essential to declare this on your Travel Insurance. Whether you’re undergoing treatment, living with a terminal cancer diagnosis or in remission, we can help you find the right policy.
As long as your doctor has approved your travel plans, a medical condition shouldn’t stop you from going abroad.
Subject to acceptance criteria, here at Just Travel Cover, we can provide cover for hundreds of pre-existing medical conditions, this includes all types and stages of cancer.
If you have to unexpectedly cancel your trip due to your declared condition, you may be able to claim under the cancellation section of your Travel Insurance.
Kidney Cancer Travel Insurance
Standard insurance policies don’t cover pre-existing medical conditions, which means you won’t be covered if you experience any medical issues on your holiday related to your condition.
Travel Insurance for kidney cancer means if your condition requires emergency medical treatment abroad you can submit a claim for consideration to recover some, or all, of the costs. If you don’t declare kidney cancer on your Travel Insurance, there’s a risk of your policy being incorrect, which can affect your ability to claim under any section of the policy.
Specialised Travel Insurance for Kidney Cancer
Travelling with a pre-existing condition is possible, provided your doctor is in agreement with your travel plans, but it does require extra consideration and planning. As soon as you book your holiday, the first step should be to secure your Travel Insurance.
With a simple medical screening process, we will ask you questions about your trip including travel dates and destination, as well as your age and medical history.
Telling us the correct information allows us to find the best policy for you. Always discuss with your doctor ahead of arranging any travel plans to check you are fit to travel and to make any necessary arrangements for managing your condition while abroad.
All policies and claims are subject to acceptance criteria and policy terms and conditions.
