Did you know that there are many risks involved in not declaring a medical condition when booking travel insurance? This blog post will explore why you must declare your medical conditions when you book your travel insurance.

THE IMPORTANCE OF DECLARING MEDICAL CONDITIONS

It is vital that you declare existing medical conditions, as typical travel insurance policies do not cover certain conditions. When you do not declare certain conditions, you are at risk of nullifying the claims which are relevant to your condition.

When you declare your medical conditions, you can make sure you book the travel insurance that will cover your existing conditions. It is one thing to have a medical emergency when you are meant to be enjoying yourself, but it is another not to have the insurance to cover your expenses for medical care.

You need to make sure you have the right insurance policy that will cover you if you experience an injury or illness while travelling. Ensure you are covered, even when you are on holiday.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DECLARE

The list of medical conditions you need to declare is long; however, some conditions include heart-related conditions, allergies, gallstones, hernias, diabetic conditions, asthma and neurological conditions, to name a few. You will also need to declare any treatments you are undergoing and conditions related to cancer.
