Health insurance for holidays in Europe for UK citizens domiciled in the UK.

[Jim987]

76 year old with permanent AF after ablation, and hypertension. I can’t find a way to search for previous threads on this.

I’ve tried to get some online quotes without any luck. To be fair I do have a quite complex medical history and some interesting near death experiences. Perhaps I should just be grateful that I’m still alive and stay at home! 🤔

But then I would never get to see the magnificent Millau Viaduct in the south of France!

I would be grateful if anyone could recommend a company who might take me on.

I had complex issues and couldn’t find anything on line but I did find insurance with travelinsurance4medical (part of World First) but again not on-line, I had to ring them.

You need to go to specialist travel insurers. I also found out that you can still get the European Health Card through the NHS - nhs.uk/using-the-nhs/health...

We just returned from Ireland and I must admit I didn’t take out travel insurance for that trip but made sure that both OH & I had the GHIC card.

I had All Clear the last time we went abroad,they were very good xx

I also used All Clear travel insurance for my recent first trip abroad since 2017. I have a number of medical problems, including AF and one that is still undergoing diagnosis.

They were recommended by an insurance broker that I know and at his suggestion I called them rather than trying to do it online.

Of course, they always quote their highest level of cover first so make sure you only buy the level of cover you actually need. Hopefully you won’t need it

Good luck

Try PayingTooMuch.com I found them by far the cheapest even better than AllClear, Staysure and all the rest

Hi Jim I too have complex health issues in my 70's. I tried a few online and found All Clear the simplest and cheapest covering everything I needed. There is a phone number too. Just have everything ready (medical history etc) to answer them. There's Gold, Silver Bronze. Best wishes

Another vote for All Clear. There isn’t much they won’t cover.
