Travel insurance

[debs40]

We're off to Barcelona tomorrow and have organised travel insurance.

It just occured to me to wonder whether it makes any difference that DS has Asperger's. I haven't set it out as a medical condition. What have you done?

if you have a diagnosed medical condition and dont declare it,your insurance is null and void and if you have visited a doctor within the last months (some are a year) you also have to declare it. You need to read the small print.

I don't declare it. It's a benign condition - not an illness.

You have to be careful that they don't say the whole policy is null and void due to not declaring all conditions - particularly if it's a family one. There are some companies that don't add on any excess, but there are others that can add ridiculous amounts. I was quoted an extra £15 per child for food intolerance, but the same company didn't add anything for dyspraxia or asthma?!
