Sickle cell anaemia travel insurance from the experts
Any holiday requires a little organising. But if you have sickle cell anaemia, some aspects of your holiday can take much more planning. With us, your travel insurance needn't be one of them. We're medical travel insurance specialists and we're happy to provide cover for anyone living with the condition before they jet off. And we'll do it at a price that's fair.
Our policies will give you the comprehensive medical cover you need for a trip abroad. That's important. But you'll also get all the other benefits you'd expect from a quality policy, such as holiday cancellation cover and protection against the loss of baggage. You can find out more below. Alternatively, call one of our highly trained customer service team on 0845 90 80 161. We also offer instant quotes online through our easy to complete medical screening.
“The process was simple and the questions about pre-existing conditions seemed more carefully thought out than on other insurer's sites that I visited.”
Customer testimonial
We'll make sure you have help when it matters most
The changeable and unpredictable nature of sickle cell anaemia means that it's not always easy to know when you might need medical care. But bills for foreign medical assistance can very easily stretch into the thousands. That makes it crucial to make sure you're covered for the cost of treatment while you're abroad. Why risk it?
With World First you'll be insured for up to £5 million worth of medical care. That includes cover for the loss of any specialist antibiotics or painkillers you are taking to help manage your condition. You'll also be given access to a 24/7 medical assistance team, wherever you are in the world. So if your condition does suddenly worsen while you're abroad, you'll be able to get the medical care you need – without worrying about the cost.
You can get a quote for your travel insurance in one of two easy ways. Our online medical screening is very popular and allows you to get a quick quote in a matter of minutes by answering a few simple questions. Rather talk to someone? No problem. Call 0845 90 80 161 and one of our customer service team will guide you through our policies. We're based in Exeter in the UK and open from 08:30 to 18:00 Monday to Friday and from 09:00 to 16:00 on Saturdays.
Good question. We're medical travel insurance specialists. We cover thousands of different conditions and on many occasions have enabled customers to travel when they couldn't get insurance elsewhere. Best of all, we do it with a caring and personal service at a price that won't blow a huge hole in your holiday budget. We're directly regulated by the Financial Services Authority and offer a 14 day money back guarantee on all policies. What are you waiting for?
