Real value starts with declaring your medical conditions
“Choosing the cheapest Medical Travel Insurance might feel like a smart move – but if the cover isn’t right, it could cost you far more in the long run. Real value comes from balancing price with protection. Look beyond the cost and ask what you’re really getting – medical cover, emergency help, or cancellation support. The best policy is the one that gives you peace of mind. Start by thinking about the level of protection you need and always declare your pre-existing medical conditions. That way, you can travel with confidence knowing your policy truly has you covered.”
