Medical Travel Insurance

The key to a truly relaxing and memorable holiday is to ensure that you have protected yourself from any nasty surprises. The biggest risk to any traveller is the costs associated with a sudden illness or serious accident involving a long stay in hospital.

Despite warnings in the media, it is surprising how many people will still travel abroad without any form of protection against unforeseen medical bills.

For many of those travelling to European destinations, there is the mistaken belief that they will be covered under the EHIC/GHIC arrangements.

However, from 1st January 2021 rules around travel to Europe have changed, visit the Government website for up to date information on passports, EHIC/GHIC, healthcare and more.
