Is Insurancewith good if you have a medical condition?

Insurancewith is a specialist at covering customers with pre-existing medical conditions.

You'll need to go through a medical screening process when applying for cover, declaring your conditions, how they're treated and how stable they are. The insurer will then decide whether it can cover your conditions and if it will affect the price.

Insurancewith works with a medical screening company called Protectif to ask customers about their medical conditions.    

Depending on your specific medical history, you may find it tricky to obtain affordable cover, or it might barely make a difference. For advice on how to get the best cover and prices, see our guide on travel insurance if you have a medical condition.

Insurers will usually expect you to try to recoup lost costs (such as deposits) elsewhere before claiming with them – for example, checking with the travel provider whether you're entitled to a refund or can reschedule a cancelled trip. However, you can still call the insurer to let it know if there's a chance you'll need to claim.  

You'll need to provide your policy number when you make a claim.
