Medical Screening

When arranging travel insurance, one of the most crucial steps is declaring any existing or past medical conditions. It might feel like an extra layer of admin, but it’s the best way to protect yourself in case something goes wrong while you’re away.

Failing to declare a condition (even something that seems minor or well-managed) could invalidate your policy. That means if you need emergency treatment, are forced to cancel your trip, or have to return home early because of that condition or a related issue, you might have to cover the cost yourself. Remember, medical treatment abroad can be extremely expensive!

At Traveladder, we work with specialist insurers who understand the complexities of medical travel insurance. We can usually offer cover for a wide range of conditions, including those considered high risk or chronic. We can also provide cover if you're currently undergoing treatment or are on a waiting list for surgery - subject to policy terms.

Pre-Existing Medical Conditions

Here's just a few of the conditions we're able to cover, dependent on the medical screening process:

Whether you’ve been managing your condition for years or have only recently been diagnosed, always declare it. That way, you’ll have the right support and the peace of mind to enjoy your trip fully.
