My Husband has had 3 stents fitted and has a couple of lasting heart conditions, I was quoted just under £500 for annual family cover for worldwide including US and Canada with staysure. They also have an offer for 15-20% discount. There is quite in-depth information on the site about travel insurance that was pointed out to me recently

I am currently with Bupa

Who insure me for EU

But would not offer US

I also go to Cyprus for 90 days

Does anyone know any companies who do longer than 90 days

Thanks

The two companies I would recommend are StaySure and AllClear. As with any insurance check T's & C's carefully.

Hi to get the best deal you will have to shop around as they all quote differently. I'm with Avanti as my previous insurance would not offer any cover as I had an ICD fitted - good luck

I have just insured with Aviva £159 for a shedload of conditions. Single trip excluding Canada and America. I think the annual was around £230

If you bank with Barclays, ask them about their Travel Pack.

I’m also with Barclays who I found to be excellent.

I found the Post Office to offer the best value. Check which ever company you use covers your needs.

Hi

I had 3 stents fitted in May and was booked to go to Majorca in July. Also needed cover for skiing next year and found a good annual quote from Allclear. Hope you get sorted.
