Travel Insurance? No Problem

Single Trip and Annual travel insurance designed for those living with pre-existing medical conditions.  

We are experts in tailoring travel insurance for those with existing medical conditions. We’re dedicated to making sure you can enjoy your holiday, regardless of your medical condition, with the financial protection that comes with having travel insurance arrangements in place.

Medical screening with a difference

To give holiday makers and travellers a choice and to help them get fairly priced travel insurance, we use a different system for medical screening to most other travel insurance providers. That’s why you won’t find us on price comparison sites.

You can still get a quotation in minutes and complete your medical screening online or by phone. Because we ask different questions and assess medical conditions differently from other providers, it could lead to a better price.

Common Conditions

The most common pre-existing medical conditions we cover are High blood pressure, Cholesterol, Type 2 diabetes, COPD, Osteoarthritis, Atrial fibrillation, Asthma, Hypertension, Chest infection and High cholesterol.

We can also quote if you are on a waiting list for treatment for a diagnosed condition.

Why do I need travel insurance?

Travel insurance is an important part of preparing for any trip abroad. It offers financial protection and practical support in case something unexpected occurs. Without insurance, travellers may find themselves facing high costs and limited assistance in the event of a problem.

Some of the key reasons to consider travel insurance include:

  • Trip cancellation cover: Reimbursement for non-refundable expenses if you are unable to travel due to an insured reason e.g. Illness or redundancy.
  • Medical emergencies abroad: Financial protection for emergency medical treatment, hospital stays, and repatriation.
  • Lost or stolen luggage: Compensation for lost, stolen or delayed baggage and personal belongings.
  • 24/7 global support: Access to a support team at any time, wherever you are in the world.
  • Financial protection: Travel with confidence.

It is especially important to consider travel insurance if you are travelling with a medical condition or if you are an older traveller. You must declare all pre-existing medical conditions for your travel insurance cover to be valid.

What does travel insurance cover?

Total Travel Protection offers several levels of travel insurance to match different needs and budgets. Our cover options include Silver, Gold and Platinum plans, each offering varying levels of protection. The following are typically included in our travel insurance policies:
