How it Works
If you are travelling abroad for either Dental treatment, Cosmetic surgery, Elective surgery or IVF/Fertility treatment and you have travel insurance, you should check the cover provided as you may not be covered. If not, you will need a specialist insurance product.
Medical Travel Shield introduces the particular insurance you may need.

Cover for cancellation of your trip will start from the date of issue or the day you pay for your trip, whichever is the later.
A number of the benefits are outlined in more detail on the benefits page here. Full details of the policy are stated in the insurance documents.
