Travel Insurance for undiagnosed medical conditions.
Nobody should travel without insurance, but if you have an undiagnosed medical condition, finding cover can be difficult – but we can help.
With NHS waiting lists longer than ever, and millions waiting for operations, scans and other operations, it’s crucial to check you’re covered should the worst happen while you’re abroad.
You can get quality Travel Insurance for undiagnosed medical conditions with Just Travel Cover. Whether it’s a European break or you’re going further afield, we aim to help you travel with the insurance you need – we will need to speak to you to discuss the undiagnosed symptom/condition.
What We Offer
To ensure you receive appropriate cover, it is essential that you are fit and able to undertake your planned trip. You should not travel against the advice of a doctor or medical practitioner, and you must not travel with the intention of seeking medical treatment abroad.
This ensures that your health status is stable and you are travel-ready, meeting the necessary conditions for obtaining cover.
In some circumstances, we may provide cover if you are undergoing or awaiting investigations for an undiagnosed condition. However, we cannot cover conditions potentially related to the heart, lungs, breathing, or cancer.

If your condition is linked to an already diagnosed medical condition…
If your undiagnosed symptom(s) have the potential to be linked to a diagnosed medical condition that has been screened and accepted, we may provide cover for medical expenses and cancellation/curtailment as a result of the undiagnosed condition(s).
This means that if your undiagnosed condition worsens or causes complications related to the pre-existing condition, you may still be able to make a cancellation claim if necessary, as well as have cover for emergency medical treatment abroad, subject to policy terms and conditions.
If your condition is NOT linked to an already diagnosed medical condition…
If your undiagnosed condition is not linked to a pre-existing condition, we may still provide cover for medical expenses while you are on holiday, subject to policy terms and conditions. This could include situations where the undiagnosed condition develops independently and is not related to any other declared medical condition(s).
Waiting for Test Results
If you are waiting for test results or an investigation for an already diagnosed condition, we can still cover your medical expenses while you are away, however, cancellation and curtailment cover may not be provided if you need to cancel or cut short your trip due to the awaited appointment.
