Pb86 Posted February 1, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Can anyone recommend a well priced insurance policy for someone that has type 1 diabetes and recently been hospitalised for suspected diverticulitis, diagnosis pending. Cover is for Caribbean and 16 days. Thanks in advance. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsrdsrdsr Posted February 2, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I think for the time being the answer is probably no, unfortunately. Insurance companies are leery of insuring any sort of undiagnosed condition. You might have to put off booking until at least the diagnosis is confirmed.

mandylennon Posted February 12, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I would wait until you have had your diagnosis, and then see what the outcome is. My mother in law has this condition it is more about controlling it with diet etc. Insurance companies usually cover existing conditions if diagnosed 6 months previously, no changes in medication and there are no more tests to be done at a small extra cost.

hjd36 Posted February 14, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Have you read this guide? http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/insurance/pre-existing-travel-insurance I managed to get insurance for a cruise in 2013 which was 3.5 months after a heart bypass. It was more than 6 weeks after the op, which seemed to be their cut off point. Last year just for a normal European holiday had more problems as I was awaiting tests for stomach pain and it's the under investigation bit they don't like. Insured with All Clear this year, with several medical conditions, for an Alaskan cruise. All Clear have a specialist cruise department (allclearcruise.co.uk ) which will give you a choice of insurers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
