Travel insurance

I had a successful ablation 14 months ago, not a murmur since, I’ve reduced my Bisoprolol and take Apixaban, why won’t my travel insurance provider reduce my premium, it’s ridiculous to keep paying at a higher level when my condition is improved so much that it is not showing any symptoms.

I think someone is cashing in?!?!!

Thoughts?

My own experience with insurance is that they don't consider you better for five years.

It’s ridiculous really!😊

I’m on Rivaroxaban. I did not switch to apixaban eventually.

I've just been away and the hospital pointed me towards Insurancewith.com and they were much better. Proper medical questions tailored to my medical issues and a sensible premium. They were also very good to deal with. And no I am nothing to do with them... but if I can save somebody half the hassle we had before we eventually asked the hospital then it will be worth it.

Have a good holiday!
