Hi everyone, does anyone know of any travel insurance companies that will cover a 2 week trip to the USA? I have +++BC, have just finished chemo and awaiting lumpectomy in 4 weeks followed by radiotherapy. We have family in the USA so would love to visit. I have been declined by 2 companies so far so I thought I would reach out to see if anyone had had any success with this. It would also be helpful to know of any companies that people have been unsuccessful with so I can cross them off the list supplied to me by my local Macmillan centre. Thanks in advance.
Hi, there's a group about travel insurance which might help.
here's the link: Travel insurance group

It’s usually helpful to phone the companies as the call centre folk can often be more helpful than just filling out a form on line. But yes, I’d agree with Insurance With, that’s the company daughter has an annual policy with (she’s had a long history, still continuing, works abroad often as well as leisure)

moomy Thanks very much. I tried to call Insurewith but they are so busy the call centre said they could call me back in 2 days (the day I am hoping to go on holiday). ! So I completed the form online and the quote was incredibly reasonable. 10% the cost of the quote I got from another company who also provide specialist insurance - yes 10%! No wonder they are so busy.
Totally agree. A very comprehensive form to complete giving all the details about yourself. Very reassuring as you feel you have disclosed everything.
Great success with Insurewith. Even to the US. A very reasonable quote.
