When you’re travelling with a medical condition such as angina, you deserve a stress-free holiday. With proper travel insurance in place, you can travel with peace of mind, knowing that if the worst happens you have our support.
Things go wrong on holiday rather more often than you’d like to think. 1 in 20 people claimed on their travel insurance in 2018*.
It could be something relatively minor like damaged luggage, to something more distressing such as stolen money or you having to cancel your flights.
But what’s most serious, of course, is a medical emergency. Aside from the health worry, the cost of treatment or medical repatriation can be a strain on your wallet and life savings.
Travel insurance can save you a lot of worry, in giving you peace of mind that if something does go wrong, we’re there as a helping hand to fix things.
Isn’t it worth doing right?

It’s important you declare angina as a heart condition on your travel insurance and any other pre-existing medical condition you may have, when taking out a policy with us.
You can declare your medical condition through our online medical screening process, which is a straightforward set of questions for us to understand how your medical conditions affect you. Or, if you prefer, you can complete the medical screening over the phone.
It’s important that all pre-existing conditions are declared on your medical travel insurance policy. This will avoid large medical bills if you need treatment in another country. Failure to disclose any pre-existing medical conditions may affect the validity of your policy should you need to claim.

The questions we ask you will vary depending on your medical circumstances. But the types of questions you may be asked include:
As with any condition, a doctor will need to state you are fit to travel before we can insure you. Once you have seen your doctor or healthcare professional and they’ve confirmed you are fit to travel, you can contact us over the phone or get a quote online.
If you are awaiting further surgery for your condition, we can still cover you for travel delays, lost luggage and other problems that may arise during your holiday.
But unfortunately, we won’t be able to cover you for any of your pre-existing medical conditions.
Yes, we consider everyone for travel insurance and that includes people who have had a coronary angioplasty and a heart stent fitted.
Your doctor will need to state you are fit to travel and you need to have been discharged from your post-op checks. You must declare all conditions during our medical screening process before we are able to offer you cover.
If you have a medical emergency and have a policy with us, you can call us 24-hours a day on our emergency helpline. A team of medical professionals will help you arrange emergency treatment with local doctors and provide translation services.
Whenever you need us, our 24/7 claims team is here for you.
