Travel insurance for pre-existing medical conditions quickly and easily
Finding travel insurance quotes at the best prices can be difficult when you or your travelling companions have medical conditions. But at World First we've been insuring travellers with health problems since 1973. It's what we do best. In fact, we offer specialist medical travel insurance for thousands of pre-existing conditions. And we can insure travellers aged up to 100.
Sometimes we offer cover when other insurers won't, enabling our customers to fulfil their travel plans. HIV, blood disorders, high blood pressure, pregnancy, thyroid problems, multiple sclerosis, cancer, heart conditions and Crohn's disease are just some of the conditions that we insure through our medical screening. If you would like to talk to one of our experts about your condition and find out how we can help, call our head office in Exeter, UK on 0845 90 80 161.
“Medical screening was very sensible compared with other insurers. Very easy to complete.”
