Important declaration
An insurance policy can only provide cover in respect of an accident, illness, injury, loss, damage or an event/occurrence which is sudden, unforeseen and beyond your reasonable control. You must tell us about all material facts. A material fact is one that is likely to affect our decision in accepting or continuing your insurance. Therefore any facts known to you, which could possibly result in you having to make a claim, must be disclosed to us, otherwise you may not be covered. For example, these could be your employment circumstances, medical history or those of a travelling companion, immediate relative, business associate or other person that may influence you to cancel or curtail your journey.
In addition, you must be able to make the following declaration for yourself and anyone travelling with you.
As far as I know neither I, nor my travelling companion(s), nor immediate family, nor business associate(s), nor anyone I am visiting, nor anyone else for whom I would expect to be covered:
- are waiting for or has the knowledge of the need for an operation, hospital consultation or any other hospital treatment or investigations including the results of a routine test;
- have been seen by a specialist or been admitted to a hospital overnight in the last 12 months (other than for regular check ups);
- have received treatment, or are waiting to receive treatment, including regular medication, within the last 5 years;
- have any pre-existing and on-going medical condition that could reasonably be anticipated to give rise to a complication needing medical intervention prior to or during a journey (if in doubt check with your general practitioner);
- have been diagnosed by a registered general practitioner as having a terminal condition;
- know of any circumstances that could be reasonably expected to give rise to a claim under this policy.
If you cannot make this declaration when you take out the insurance, you must contact Healthcheck on 0845 408 0585
A policy document that fully defines the cover, conditions and exclusions will be sent to you with your booking confirmation. When you receive your policy, please take the time to read it carefully to ensure you understand what is and what is not covered, and that all activities that you may wish to participate in are included. If it does not meet your requirements, please return the policy, proof of premium and any other relevant documents to us within 14 days of receipt and we will refund the premium in full, provided you have not travelled or made a claim.
Failure to comply with the terms & conditions of the policy may result in cover being restricted.
