Question of The Week
Question:
Do I have to complete a questionnaire for Trip Cancellation/Interruption
Answer:
Some insurers do require a medical questionnaire but we prefer the policies without it. In addition a stability period prior to purchase applies to you and people around you who may cause you to cancel. So be sure to ask how many days you all have to be stable prior to buying your coverage. Unstable conditions will not be covered.
