IMPORTANT NOTICE - Your (travel) insurers, under the Association of British Insurers' General Business Code of Practice, have to bring to your attention some of the important features of your insurance policy, including:

IMPORTANT Health Note:
You must contact the Healthcheck Team on Tel: 0845 4080585 advising them of all Pre-Existing Medical Conditions, relating to you and all persons* on whom the travel plans depend. Failure to do so may result in claims for undisclosed conditions being excluded.
*All persons means not only the people with whom you are actually travelling but also any relative, business associate etc. on whose well-being the trip depends.

Important declaration

An insurance policy can only provide cover in respect of an event/occurrence which is sudden, unforeseen and beyond your reasonable control. Therefore any facts known to you, which could possibly result in you having to make a claim, must be disclosed, otherwise you may not be covered. In particular, you must be able to make the following declaration for yourself and anyone travelling with you.

As far as I know neither I, nor my travelling companion(s), nor immediate family, nor business associate(s), nor anyone I am visiting, nor anyone else for whom I would expect to be covered:
1 are waiting for or has the knowledge of the need for an operation, hospital consultation or any other hospital treatment or investigations including the results of a routine test;
2 have been seen by a specialist or been admitted to a hospital overnight in the last 12 months (other than for regular check ups);
3 have received treatment, or are waiting to receive treatment, including regular medication, within the last 5 years;
4 have any pre-existing and on-going medical condition that could reasonably be anticipated to give rise to a complication needing medical intervention prior to or during a journey (if in doubt check with your general practitioner);
5 have been diagnosed by a registered general practitioner as having a terminal condition;
6 know of any circumstances that could be reasonably expected to give rise to a claim under this policy.

If you cannot make this declaration when you take out the insurance, you must contact Healthcheck on 0845 408 0585

A policy document that fully defines the cover, conditions and exclusions will be sent to you with your booking confirmation. When you receive your policy, please take the time to read it carefully to ensure you understand what is and what is not covered, and that all activities that you may wish to participate in are included. If it does not meet your requirements, please return the policy, proof of premium and any other relevant documents to us within 14 days of receipt and we will refund the premium in full, provided you have not travelled or made a claim.

Failure to comply with the terms & conditions of the policy may result in cover being restricted.
