Travel Insurance

Hi all I am hoping to travel to NZ this year and USA next year I am clear of breast cancer but it has moved to my collar bone starting radiation for that next week. Does anyone know a good travel insurance company that will cover me for existing illness

    I have tried them all & they all come up with a resounding NO for mbc. However they will cover you for anything not assocoated with the cancer.

    There are a couple of obscure companies that will cover at ridiculous costs of around $2500- $3000

    Hi Deb,
    i have heard on this forum that Covermore is widely used with success and also CGU.
    I'm  planning to travel overseas, the day after I've completed Herceptin (woo hoo) in December but yet to research these. My not for profit health fund also offers travel insurance now so will be investigating that too.
    Hope this helps and best of luck with your rads and trips.
