All Clear have a good reputation and quite reasonable. But it's not gonna be cheap for cover to America

I’ve just used the post office after heart attack and quadruple bypass in April - age 51

Try Insurance With - my husband has had a triple bypass and it was quite reasonable for an annual policy. I had to get insurance just for the US trip as I have several health issues. Their initial questions relate to medication, so a different approach to most companies.

I used all clear, if you are more than six weeks post HA premiums will drop. Managed a years cover world wide. As Lessers points out it’s not cheap. Didn’t ask the post office - have put note in diary for next year

Voyager plus - just took an annual policy out with them yesterday covering North America and it was £238 which is only £80 more than pre heart problems. My husband had a heart attack and quadruple bypass 9 weeks ago. The policy is 5k cancellation, 10 million medical, 5k baggage and the price also includes an additional premium for terrorism - reviews seem really good and all done in 10 minutes over the phone.....you can only go so far on-line then because of the medical info they need you need to talk to someone
