No claim arising directly or indirectly from a pre-existing <strong>me</strong>dical condition affecting you will be<br />
covered unless:<br />
• You have declared ALL pre-existing <strong>me</strong>dical conditions to us; and<br />
• You have declared any changes to your health or prescribed <strong>me</strong>dications; and<br />
• We have accepted the conditions(s) for insurance in writing.<br />
Each insured person who has a pre-existing <strong>me</strong>dical condition must make a <strong>me</strong>dical health declaration<br />
before each period of insurance and, if there are any changes in your health or prescribed <strong>me</strong>dication,<br />
prior to com<strong>me</strong>nce<strong>me</strong>nt of the period of insurance, before departing on any trip and throughout the life of<br />
your policy.<br />
Failure to declare ALL pre-existing <strong>me</strong>dical conditions that are relevant to the insurance may<br />
invalidate the policy.<br />
We may require you to obtain a <strong>me</strong>dical report from your General Practitioner or Consultant in order to<br />
assess whether cover applies. Any costs incurred from obtaining this <strong>me</strong>dical report shall be borne by you.<br />
Based on our assess<strong>me</strong>nt of the <strong>me</strong>dical information supplied to us, we will decide whether or not the<br />
person is suitable for insurance, if certain exclusions or restrictions should be imposed, or if cover can be<br />
offered subject to the pay<strong>me</strong>nt of an additional premium. If we offer cover, and, if the cover is subject to<br />
the pay<strong>me</strong>nt of an additional premium, cover will not com<strong>me</strong>nce until full pay<strong>me</strong>nt has been received by us<br />
and written confirmation has been provided by us.<br />
To declare a pre-existing <strong>me</strong>dical condition or a change in your state of health or prescribed <strong>me</strong>dication,<br />
you should contact the Medical Screening Helpline during office hours on 0844 692 8418. An additional<br />
premium may be required when adding <strong>me</strong>dical conditions to your policy or when changing the current<br />
<strong>me</strong>dical declaration.<br />
You should also refer to the General Exclusions.<br />
The following <strong>me</strong>dical conditions are covered without additional charge and subject to the normal terms<br />
and conditions of this insurance, provided that:<br />
a) the insured is not awaiting surgery for the condition; and<br />
b) the insured has been fully discharged from any post-operative follow-up.<br />
