Travel Insurance for Pre-Existing Medical Conditions

We’ve been arranging travel insurance to cover pre-existing medical conditions since 1973 and during the last few years have seen many developments in the marketplace. The internet and developments in the technology available to us now means that arranging cover for conditions ranging from heart problems to HIV is much easier. We’ve developed our own medical screening software and integrated it throughout our sales process to offer a totally in-house solution, which means when you call us for holiday insurance to cover health problems we can provide a quote and issue cover all in one phone call.

I’m constantly amazed at the repsonses we get from our clients and we’re often told how much cheaper our policies are compared to other insurance providers offering cover pre-existing medical conditions and related health complications. For example, last week we arranged cover for a client with Motor Neurons Disease and Crohns Disease and our premium was just £47.24 and the next cheapest travel insurance quote the client was able to find was more than double that from World First and came in at £112.00 for a single trip policy.

Travel Insurance for Epilepsy is another area we seem to be increasing asked for. We quoted £26.61 for a weeks European cover compared to £156.00 and our policy also included cover for the clients brain tumour.

We’re working hard to develop a new range of policies now for people with seriously impaired lives who have been given a terminal prognosis and hope to launch these via the World First Website in the near future. In the meantime, keep up-to-date with the latest news from our travel archive.
