Elderly Conditions Travel Insurance

These days many people enjoy full and active retirements, and going abroad is just one of the ways you may choose to treat yourself. If you’re planning a trip abroad, whether its a package holiday, cruise or a special trip you’ve booked independently, it can be important to have adequate travel insurance. Unfortunately many insurers have defined upper age limits for those they will cover when abroad. Trying to compare travel insurance can also be difficult if you have any pre-existing medical conditions, such as cancer or infections.

You must declare all pre-existing medical conditions to your insurer before you travel, it doesn’t matter how significant. This is defined as anything that you’ve taken medication for in the last 12 months, which has led to you seeing a medical specialist or spending time in hospital.

Dont let your pre-existing condition stop you from leading life to the full. With adequate travel insurance you’ll be safe in the knowledge that your insurer could pay for any medical treatment you may need while you’re away, as well as any expenses incurred as a result of a medical emergency. They can even fly you home urgently if you need to return. If you’re worried about your condition then why not check with your airline before you fly, as they may decide that it is not safe for you to travel.
