Oops, did you travel without insurance? We can get you back on track
Diverticulitis is known to be a very unpredictable medical condition which is one reason why it's essential you have sufficient travel insurance in place that will include cover for claims related back to the condition. We are specialists in covering pre-existing conditions and offer travel insurance for diverticulitis and claims that can be related to it. Our policies will offer you the peace of mind that even if your diverticulitis causes you to cancel a planned trip you will be covered for any of your pre-paid costs that you are unable to recover from any other source. Our policies will also include cover for medical expenses abroad and repatriation to the UK.
Diverticulitis can sometimes go by the name diverticulosis, when the condition poses no symptoms or diverticular disease, when diverticula cause symptoms such as pain in the lower abdomen. If the diverticula become more inflamed or infected, causing more severe symptoms, it’s called diverticulitis. As we specialise in covering pre-existing conditions we are usually able to reflect your specific diagnosis during our medical screening.
The number of people who have diverticulosis is increasing. Nearly 1 in 10 people over the age of 45 have diverticulosis, which may increase to around 8 in 10 people by the age of 85. Most general travel insurance companies do not provide cover for this condition and will usually automatically exclude any claims that are related. Diverticulitis is one of the most common conditions that we insure and we'll always endeavour to find suitable cover for you!
