Over 60s Travel Insurance

Why do you need over 60s travel insurance?

Finding the right travel insurance is an important part of planning a trip - and with Medical Travel Compared, you can compare cover for people aged 60 and above across a range of specialist providers. 

As you get older, finding holiday cover at a reasonable price can be tricky. Especially if you have a pre-existing medical condition to declare.

But with our easy-to-use online tool, you can compare cover from insurance providers all in one place - and choose the one most suitable for you in minutes.

Travel insurance for over 60s with pre-existing medical conditions

As mentioned above, we work with a wide variety of medical travel insurance specialists, who provide cover for a range of pre-existing medical conditions. 

You can declare your pre-existing conditions with us before comparing cover. 

This refers only to conditions for which you’ve been properly diagnosed - i.e. conditions for which you’ve had surgery, or treatment, in the last two years – plus any cancerous, stroke, heart or breathing conditions you’ve ever been formally diagnosed with.

This also includes conditions for which you take prescribed medication for. Failing to do so could invalidate your policy, and the last thing you want to discover is that you’re not covered should you face a medical issue abroad.

If you’re unsure what you have to declare when applying for travel insurance for over 60s with medical conditions, then feel free to chat with our Support Team.

Here are some of the more common types of conditions we can help you find cover for:

• Heart & Circulatory
• Digestive
• Respiratory
• Autoimmune
• Cancer 
• Mental Health

Over 60s annual multi-trip or single trip cover

You can buy medical travel insurance for a single trip with the help of Medical Travel Compared. If you’re only planning to holiday abroad once in the next year, this is probably the best way to go.

On the other hand, if you know you’re going to be going on holiday a few times over the next year, an annual multi trip policy is probably the better option. 

Even if you’ve only got one holiday booked for now, it’s a good idea to compare prices between a single-trip policy and an annual plan. Then you can make an informed decision.

Are there different levels of over 60s insurance cover?

When comparing cover, you’re likely to find that some providers will offer more coverage than others

Usually, travel insurance costs more if cover is enhanced in certain areas. For example, depending on the duration of your trip(s), you need long stay cover, cover for multiple trips - or even specialist cover for certain pre-existing medical conditions. 

All these things have a bearing on how much cover is offered by any given policy, so you should always carefully check this prior to purchasing. 

With us, you can even select one of our additional cover options before you compare quotes:

• Gadget cover
• Cruise cover
• Winter sports cover

Over 60s travel insurance tips

There are a few things you may want to keep in mind before you start comparing cover.

• Have you carefully checked the policy documents to ensure you know exactly what’s covered?
• Have you selected the right type of policy? (Single trip or annual multi trip?) 

If you can answer these questions, you’re ready to get started with our straightforward online comparison tool.
