Question of The Week
Question:
What happens if I forget to call to report a change of health before departure?
Answer:
Typically, the majority of travel insurance plans may void your whole contract and decline all claims even if unrelated to the unreported health change. We make a point avoiding plans with the "Change of Health" clause. With our recommended plans, if you forget to report a change of health, the specific condition is excluded but your plan remains in force to cover all other claims.
