Frequently asked questions on Breast Cancer Travel Insurance
Does breast cancer affect the cost of Travel Insurance?
Breast Cancer Travel Insurance normally costs more than standard Travel Insurance. This is because you are more likely to need to claim on your policy. Either because you needed medical assistance while you were away, or because you needed to cancel or cut your trip short.
The price of your policy will depend on various factors, including the stage of your cancer and how long ago you were diagnosed. By answering the questions in our simple medical screening process, you will be able to get a quote quickly and easily.
Will you be covered by GHIC if you have/have had breast cancer?
The UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) gives you access to necessary state healthcare in the EEA (European Economic Area) while you’re away. If you are travelling in a country where the GHIC applies, you should be able to access emergency state medical care at the same price as a local resident. Either for free or at a reduced price.
It will not cover medical repatriation if you need to be flown home, and it doesn’t cover all countries. Nor does it provide protection for your belongings if they become lost or stolen, or help with cancellation or cutting your trip short.
It should not be seen as an alternative to comprehensive Breast Cancer Travel Insurance.
Can you still go abroad if you have breast cancer?
It’s important to get a professional medical opinion on going away if you have breast cancer. Your doctor should be able to advise on the best time to go away if you’re undergoing treatment. They can also tell you how you’re likely to feel while away and advise on countries that may not be suitable for your needs. You should discuss how time differences will affect when you take your medication.
Contact your airline in advance to discuss your needs, so they can advise you and provide you with extra support. Always keep your Breast Cancer Travel Insurance documents with you wherever you go, and take enough medication with you.
Can you get a quote if your cancer has spread to other parts of the body?
We know every cancer is different, so we ask some simple medical screening questions to help provide you with a personalised quote. This will include whether your cancer has spread to other parts of your body. We’ll also ask you when you were diagnosed, what treatment you are receiving and other questions about your medical history.

You can do this online or phone our friendly team.
