Standard, Enhanced, Prime and Supreme POLICIES ONLY
Medical conditions
1 – Within the last 12 months, have you or your travelling companions suffered from, been investigated for, diagnosed with, received treatment or taken any medication for;
a. any cancer or malignant condition.
b. any lung related condition (other than stable, well controlled asthma that requires not more than 2 medications, including inhalers).
c. any heart related condition (including angina)?
NB – You must contact Healthcheck if you take any medication for any of these conditions.
2 – Do you or your travelling companions suffer from any other medical condition that has required referral to or consultation with a specialist clinic or hospital for treatment, tests or investigation within the 12 months prior to the date this insurance was arranged or the date that you subsequently made arrangements for a trip?
NB – Continuing regular medication that is taken at home for a stable, well-controlled condition does not amount to “treatment” in this context and so does not need to be screened. If you or your travelling companions have stable conditions that require no more than 2 routine check-ups/reviews per year each then you do not need to be screened
3 – Has your or your travelling companions’ doctor increased your regular prescribed medication in the last 3 months?
