I got travel insurance for Europe for a year with Boots, very helpful and friendly on the phone. £245 for the two of us, to include kidney cancer only diagnosed Oct 18, bladder cancer, high blood pressure and atrial flutter, plus we’re both over 70 so I thought that was good. Just hope we don’t have to claim!! 

Thank you Mitzie10, I will give some of these a go.

Hi.

I was looking for annual worldwide insurance post prostatectomy (late 2017) and received quotes from Insurewith, Bootsonline and Virgin Money for ca £500. I was recommended checking if my Bank (Barclays) provided insurance.  I called for a quote, giving both my wife’s (hypertension) and my cancer diagnosis and treatment plus other health issues and found to my surprise that their travel pack products £12.50/18.00 monthly,  covered all health problems without any additional premium.  Also they provided free RAC cover and airport lounge access.  On this basis I’d definitely recommend people check what their bank provides.

IHi My husband has recently been diagnosed with lung cancer and we have treatment starting later thi month. The Doctor said we could go abroad whilst waiting. I stupidly thought my existing annual policy would cover him !!!

I tried several companies, most wouldn't cover at all and those that would wanted £3000+

I finally found a company called EURO PLUS, if you are happy to use your EHIC card for existing conditions they will cover you for accidents, loss of luggage , new conditions etc. A one week trip cost me .......... £13.29

I know this isn't for everyone but my hubby is quite well and we do not see his cancer causing a problem on holiday but were worried about accidents etc.

Hope this is of some help to you

I’ve also found that “Now I Can Travel” provides competitive single trip quotes with relative to other insurers lower excesses for pre existing conditions. I have Stage 4b non Hodgkin lymphoma in remission.
