Compare Travel Insurance for Cancer Patients

Dedicated cancer assessment process with three possible outcomes: cover approved with additional premium, mandatory exclusion of cancer-related claims only (policy still valid for all other benefits), or unable to offer cover.

Travellers with cancer must apply to have the condition covered as a pre-existing condition. A 3-year lookback period applies. If approved, an additional premium is charged. If not approved, the cancer is excluded but other cover remains.

Cancer must be declared and assessed — it is not among the 40 conditions that can be auto-covered. Travellers complete an online medical assessment. An additional premium typically applies if cover is approved.

Cancer must be disclosed at the time of purchase. Cover is only extended if agreed in writing. Travellers receive a Certificate of Insurance or Medical Terms of Cover document confirming what cancer-related cover has been agreed.
