While holidaying in the USA in February 2019, John1 was hospitalised after a fall. When he said he had travel insurance, he was treated immediately .
While waiting for test results, he called our 24/7 emergency medical support team and was told not to worry because we would sort out payment directly with the hospital.
With no need to make credit card payments upfront, John could focus on his recovery, safe in the knowledge that his claim was being taken care of.

As long as you’ve had the vaccines you’ve been offered for Covid-19, you should be covered. If you haven’t been offered both doses yet or you’re medically exempt then you can also be covered.
If you’ve refused any doses of the vaccine or haven’t been able to have a dose you’ve been offered, you won’t be covered.
It’s very important to tell us about the nature of your back pain, along with any other pre-existing health conditions. That way, we can build a personalised insurance policy that meets your needs perfectly. If you don’t tell us about your health conditions and needed to make a claim, we may not be able to cover you.
Back pain has various causes and affects everyone in different ways. It could be the result of an injury, arthritis, a slipped disc, a damaged sciatic nerve or fibromyalgia. Our medical screening process is there to help you tell us about your particular type of back pain and how it affects you in day-to-day life.
We respect your confidentiality and will guide you through step by step, at your own pace.
If you’ve been signed off from all post-operative checks, we may be able to cover you for your trip away.
We should be able to insure you if:
If you’re planning a holiday to Europe, you’ll need to take a free GHIC (or an EHIC) as a condition of our travel insurance.
When the United Kingdom left the European Union, the GHIC replaced the EHIC as the means for accessing free or subsidised healthcare in selected European countries. Before you travel, make sure you check that your destination is covered by GHIC, just so you’re ready if you do need any emergency or necessary treatment for your back pain during your trip.
Remember, your GHIC is not the same as having good health conditions travel insurance. For example, it won’t cover you if you need to cancel your holiday.
Your GHIC helps reduce your medical costs where subsidised healthcare is available. If you can use your GHIC and have to pay a subsidised fee for your treatment, we’ll remove the excess fee on medical emergency claims for you.
We will ask you to talk us through your back pain and treatment, so that we can get to know you a little better.
Here’s an example of the type of questions we might ask:
Don’t worry, we won’t rush you and we respect your health conditions are a sensitive subject. We will only use the information you give us to build a level of cover that suits you best.
Yes. It’s vital to update us if your back or neck pain changes or you’re given a new diagnosis. It means we can make sure you’re safe to travel with the confidence of knowing you have the right cover.
