Are there any travel insurance companies offering reasonable rates for coronary heart bypass patients?

I'm not sure whether the rate would be reasonable for heart bypass patients but I find the most reasonable rate, having a stent, because of a heart attack, is offered by benendenhealthcare (benenden.co.uk). Mind you, my rate is perhaps reasonable because I get a 10% discount as a member of benenden. If you are interested in receiving private treatment / consultations for medical problems in the event of a long waiting list on the NHS, you may possibly be interested in joining benendenhealthcare: the cost is massively less than for private medical insurance. The travel insurance is available even if you're not a member but you wouldn't get the discount.

Lots. Try Insurewith. I’ve found them very competitive

There is a comparison site medicaltravelcompared.co.uk which might be a good start.

Paid 155 for my husbands last year which was 3 months after a heart attack and quadruple bypass. This was for an annual policy including America through Voyager Insurance
