It’s a good idea to talk to your GP before purchasing an insurance policy as they’ll be able to help you answer the medical questions.
All I can say is - answer all questions truthfully. The last thing you need when travelling is to suddenly be denied cover. There are a few good posts and articles available on the search of this page - good luck
Answer honestly and fully declare your condition. If you are I’ll abroad and you haven’t, your insurers won’t pay. I know someone who’s claim came to over £100,000. It’s not worth messing about with to save a few tens of pounds.
Most banks offer travel insurance with monthly fee to the current account. I am with Barclays and I am 72, I will have travel insurance with Barclays till 80 years of age.
Each time there is a change to my health, I call the medical declaration number and give up date. So far all OK for me.
Be totally honest on the forms firstly and do a comparison online. I use Staysure insurance, I found them the cheapest.
