I have done some forum searching but as of yet not found the answers to my questions .......
OK brief history we are due to travel end of this month to Seattle so that my Son in Law and daughter can do a trip of a like time .... motorbike ride from Rotterdam to the arctic circle in Norway ....
my wife and I both have medical pre existing conditions some of the more normal things like high blood pressure , A Fib .... I have prostate cancer ... early stage low risk 'watch and wait' treatment.
My wife has not long since had a cancerous kidney removed , but the real problem seams to be that she is on a list (prob 6 months) for a probable gallbladder removal due to gallstones.
most UK quotes have come in at £5,000+ we have had one for £3500 ....
So first question has any one had any dealings with buying medical short (3-6 months) term direct from the USA?
we have seen a few quotes for $200 - 800
if we go with that we would look to take a UK based insurance out for all the more normal travel insurance things. and would need to find a company that would exclude all the medical stuff ...
Yes we have been and returned ..... We will never know how good or bad the policy's where .... no incidents or illness ... I can only say that the combination of the 2 policy's , gave us the cheapest price / coverage
That's good news that you had no incidents! It's always a worry when you go away and want peace of mind that you are covered for something going wrong.
It's always best to have insurance and not need it than to need insurance and not have it!
