Why do I need travel insurance for heart palpitations?

Are you looking for travel insurance when you have been diagnosed with heart palpitations? With us, you’ll find it’s simple – and it could be less costly than you think.

We specialise in travel insurance for people with medical conditions of all kinds, and heart palpitations (also known as arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat) is no exception.

It’s your holiday, so we let you tailor your policy. That means you can cover your medical conditions as well as your personal travel needs. You can even choose the level of cover that suits you.

You might be interested to know that 1 in 20 people claimed on their travel insurance in 2018*. People need to claim more often than you might think.

So, when you’re travelling with heart palpitations you’ll need to cover the condition on your medical travel insurance. The cost of medical treatment around the world can be horribly steep. Then there are late flights, loss of property and other non-health-related mishaps.

That’s not the sort of thing you want to worry about. With our insurance policies, you don’t have to.

Isn’t it worth doing it right?

Should I declare my pre-existing medical conditions on my travel insurance?

It’s important you declare heart palpitations and any other pre-existing medical condition you may have, when taking out a policy with us.

You can declare your medical 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, if you prefer, you can complete the medical screening over the phone.

It’s important that all pre-existing conditions are declared on your 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.

Excellent

"We have been using Staysure for some years and find them very professional to deal with. Their rates are very competitive and if a claim is necessary, they deal with it fairly and quickly."
"Very happy with a straighforward process. Good range of options available and very easy to enter the pre-existing medical conditions. Great cover provided at a good price"
"I was unexpectedly diagnosed with an illness that was thankfully cured by surgery. I travel a lot and was unsure how this would affect travel insurance. I phoned Staysure and was given clear and helpful information, asked quite detailed health questions and was finally given a very competitive quote for an annual policy with the option to pay monthly. Very efficient service, great company to deal with."

People also asked

Obviously, this will depend on your individual medical circumstances and condition. But the sort of questions we may ask you about your heart palpitations / arrhythmia / irregular heartbeat include:

  • How has your condition been treated?
  • How many unplanned hospital visits for your irregular heartbeat have you had in the last 12 months?
  • Are you on medication to thin the blood (excluding aspirin and clopidogrel)?
  • Has your heart rhythm ever caused collapses, faints or blackouts?
  • Have you ever been told that the arteries in your heart are blocked or narrowed?
  • Do you have any further investigation or treatment planned?

Don't worry – the medical screening doesn't take long, it's easy to follow and it's completely confidential.

Yes, we may be able to cover you if your doctor has declared you fit to travel and discharged you from your post-op checks. You'll need to complete our simple medical screening process, which you can do either online or over the phone.

We can only offer travel insurance cover if your doctor has declared you fit to travel. If in doubt, speak to your doctor about your travel plans.

Your doctor needs to state you are well enough for the holiday and confirm that the blackouts are purely as a result of your irregular heart rhythm. Once you have the green light from your doctor that it’s safe for you to travel, we may be able to offer you travel insurance for heart palpitations.
