Should I declare my pre-existing medical conditions on my travel insurance?
It’s important you declare your kidney condition and any other pre-existing medical condition you may have, when taking out a policy with us.
You can declare your medical condition through our online medical screening process, which is a straightforward set of questions for us to understand how your medical conditions affect you. Or, if you prefer, you can complete the medical screening over the phone.
It’s important that all pre-existing conditions are declared on your medical travel insurance policy. This will avoid large medical bills if you need treatment in another country. Failure to disclose any pre-existing medical conditions may affect the validity of your policy should you need to claim.

People also asked
What types of kidney conditions can be covered by travel insurance? 
We're specialists in travel insurance for people with pre-existing medical conditions. Here are just some of the kidney-related conditions that we will consider providing medical travel insurance for:
- Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
- Kidney stones
- Nephritis
- Renal failure
- Kidney stones
Does travel insurance cover kidney stones?
Travel insurance can cover kidney stones, as long as you declare all of your medical conditions when you buy your policy.
I am awaiting/having dialysis, can you cover me?
If you are awaiting or having dialysis, you may be able to get Single Trip Travel Insurance, depending on where you are travelling to.
We can offer single trip cover, excluding all your pre-existing medical conditions, if you’re travelling to any of the following locations:
- Belgium
- Cyprus (excluding Northern Cyprus)
- Denmark
- Finland
- France
- Germany
- Gibraltar
- Greece
- Italy
- Malta
- Netherlands
- Norway
- Poland
- Portugal
- Republic of Ireland
- Spain
- Sweden
- United Kindgom
By excluding all your pre-existing medical conditions, this means you’ll still be covered for medical emergencies and cancellation, as long as they aren’t related either directly or indirectly to your pre-existing conditions.
But you’ll still be covered for baggage, lost money and passports.
What questions will I be asked during the medical screening about my kidney condition?
Every individual’s circ*mstances vary. But the type of questions you can expect to be asked about your kidney condition include:
- What is specific name of the medical condition?
- Is the function of your kidneys impaired?
- How often you are being monitored?
- Are you on dialysis?
- How many (if any) unplanned hospital admissions for this problem you have had in the last year?
- Are you currently awaiting a kidney transplant?
If you are awaiting tests or investigations, it’s best to call us as we won’t be able to provide a quote online.
If you’ve had a kidney transplant you’ll also be asked:
- How long it has been since you had your transplant?
- Have you had any episodes of rejection within the last year?
- Was the kidney donated by a living donor?
- Have you been admitted to hospital in the last 12 months for treatment related to your transplant?
I've got an annual travel insurance policy and now my medication has changed. Do I need to tell you?
We need to know about any changes to your kidney condition or new conditions, or any other change in your health. If this isn't disclosed, your insurance policy won’t cover you properly. Tell us as soon as possible and we will see if the policy can be adjusted. This may mean an additional premium.
We think you'll agree if it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right.
