When I planned a trip to new York in 2010 my quote for health insurance was around £5,000, as at the time I was under treatment for renal cancer. When I enquired about excluding any claims with regard to my cancer diagnosis and treatment, it went down to a £150.00, now I know this might not be suitable as it depends on health conditions, but is it worth trying,
This is a good call. Excluding diagnosed conditions, or conditions that are under investigation, whilst still risky, is immensely more sensible than travelling to the US with no insurance whatsoever.
