I am looking for Travel Insurance for my Father. He is 66, had a heart attack 10 years ago and subsequently had a bypass surgery. In the last couple of years he's been diagnosed and treated for diabetes.
Queries -
1- Do you think getting travel insurance is going to be straight forward?
2- Is there any chance of getting Pre existing conditions covered?
3- If yes, please provide the insurance company?
The "pre-existing medical conditions" clauses says "you do not have any pre-existing medical conditions".
This is mentioned in small print, so please read policy document and policy wording carefully.
Sharul,
Policy Document I know and understand but what is this Policy Wording :confused:? Any idea.
Thanks in advance!

Mention every detail you know about pre-existing conditions.
2- Get a credit card with travel insurance cover included. These often exclude pre-existing medical conditions but will provide automatic cover for all else.
Policy wording is the document supplied with the policy which explain the insurance terms and various details like -Quote:
