Specialist travel insurance for thyroid conditions
Going on holiday? At World First you can get the travel insurance you need for a range of thyroid conditions. They include hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), thyroid nodules and Graves' disease. We also offer competitively priced cover for thyroid cancer – unlike many other insurers. You won't pay over the odds and you don't have to travel under-insured. That's a promise.
Our policies include all the usual benefits you'd expect from a specialist travel insurer including cover against trip cancellation or curtailment, transport delay, lost baggage, travel documents and cash, and £2 million worth of personal liability cover. If you'd like to talk to one of our expert customer service team, give us a call on 0845 90 80 161. Alternatively you can get an instant quote online through our confidential medical screening.
“Easy and efficient service, no jargon to worry about and no explanations needed about my illness. Thank you.”
Customer testimonial
Relax. We'll be there when it matters most.
Although it's relatively rare, some thyroid conditions can lead to sudden medical complications that require urgent treatment. That means it's worth making sure your travel insurance policy covers you if you need emergency treatment while you're abroad – especially as the cost of foreign medical care can quickly rocket into thousands of pounds.
With us, there's no need to worry. Our policies provide cover for up to £5 million worth of medical expenses, including the cost of replacing any medication you're taking to help manage your condition. We'll also give you access to a 24/7 emergency assistance team. And if something unexpected does happen, we'll fly a paramedic from the UK to wherever you are in the world to make sure you're getting the best treatment possible.
We've made it quick and easy to get a quote for your travel insurance. With our online medical screening you can get a quote in a matter of minutes just by answering a few simple questions. Rather talk to an advisor? No problem. We're happy to offer a quote over the phone. Just call us on 0845 90 80 161. 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.
Medical travel insurance is what we do best. We provide cover for thousands of conditions and in many cases we've made it possible for people with illnesses such as cancer and HIV to travel when they couldn't get a fair quote elsewhere. Our staff are trained to provide each customer with a courteous and knowledgeable service and we're directly authorised and regulated the Financial Services Authority. So try us! We won't let you down.
