Do I need to declare medical conditions on my travel insurance?
Yes. You can declare your conditions through our online medical screening process, which is a straightforward set of questions for us to understand how your medical conditions affect you. Or, you can complete the medical screening over the phone.
It’s important to let us know about any other pre-existing medical conditions you may have. Don’t worry, you can still be covered for cancellation and medical expenses if you develop coronavirus at home or abroad.
Covering your conditions will help you avoid large medical bills if you need treatment abroad - including treatment for COVID-19. Failure to declare any pre-existing medical conditions may affect the validity of your policy if you need to claim.
For us to assess your situation, we will need to ask you the following questions:
Does anyone travelling on this policy:

- Received treatment for any medical or psychological condition?
