Hello everyone,

I know this question has been asked before, but can anyone advise me on any travel insurance companies that offer reasonable cover for people with cancer?

Many thanks

If you are already with a health insurer you are covered or can get a multitrip for a year for 49euro here in Ireland with whoever you have health insurance with. If you are travelling within the EEC you should get cover from your local Health Board but you must apply for that card. It is difficult to get insurance when travelling with Cancer maybe some one else might come up with other ideas

HI.

Not sure if you are in Ireland or UK - but the Irish Cancer Society have a good leaflet with info on the Insurance Companys that will cover us, and the cost is not too expensive. If you are in UK - I am sure that MacMillan or Ovacome has such info.

I used Mia online for the first couple of years after diagnosis. They were the only ones that would cover me that wasn't a totally ridiculous price or a no insure.

Also, you could try LV. They will insure me now but will not cover anything to do with the ovarian cancer.
