I'm using Covermore for an upcoming overseas trip. I declared my breast cancer treatment. I've also had a hysterectomy and ovary removal in the last 6 months, so I'm paying a few hundred extra on my premium (optional), I'm not sure if the breast cancer increased my premium as well, but they've covered me for it.
You've allayed one of my fears that cover would simply be refused. Adjustment of premium seems fair way for an insurance company to price risk. I had been told by a friend that cover would probably be denied. I know to tap into the abundant bcna resources. Thank you very much and hope you are now feeling well.
It varies from company to company - some exclude a cancer history from any cover. So you need to shop around. I have never had to make a claim so I can’t say that Covermore is good from that aspect, but I could get good cover at a reasonable rate, with my cancer history known.
