Medical Conditions

People with known medical conditions often find it difficult to get cover under standard travel insurance policies. Insurers want to insure only events that are totally unforeseen and the existence of a condition causes them concern that the chances of a claim are greatly increased.

Nowicantravel.co.uk works with insurers who have gained knowledge of conditions from Eczema to Cancer and know how to make fair and reasonable assessments. Our insurers won’t unreasonably refuse cover and where they have to apply some increased price or other control, will do it from a basis of real understanding of what you need.

Short duration trips to close destinations may be much less risky in terms of likelihood of claim or the cost of it than longer trips to far off lands for the apparently well and we have factored that in to our pricing. But we can still insure many types of holiday to all destinations and up to a year in length.

Conditions such as diabetes, angina, arthritis, asthma, cancer, heart attack, high or low blood pressure don’t have to prevent you from getting insurance for that longed for or much needed holiday. Even more serious conditions can often be capable of being insured at sensible prices.

Travellers with disabilities can also be insured. This includes those with mobility aids including; wheelchair, motorised wheelchair, walking stick, walking frame or crutches.

Of course we can’t guarantee to give you the same price as people without pre-existing conditions but we will try to provide a quotation. We don’t automatically apply an age limit so the assessment of your insurance cost will be based on your personal circumstances.
