The travel insurance solution for UK nationals travelling abroad for medical treatment at Destination Health Exhibition.

 

The organisers of Destination Health, the forthcoming health & medical tourism show in London have announced the addition of a new exhibitor who will be promoting travel insurance for people planning to travel abroad for medical treatment.

 

Travel Insurance Specialists, PJ Hayman & Company has introduced a new specially designed travel insurance policy for people travelling abroad for medical procedures. Known as FREE SPIRIT Travel for Treatment, the insurance policy promises coverage for a wide-range of treatments including any complications that may occur*.

 

Peter Hayman, director of PJ Hayman, commented: “Standard travel insurance schemes do not provide this cover. While there are some specific policies that will provide some protection for additional travel/accommodation costs they do not cover medical costs arising from complications. Without full cover there is a risk of incurring large medical bills and increased expenses”.

 

Visitors to Destination Health who are interested in the insurance policy will be able to meet representatives from PJ Hayman on their stand, where they can obtain immediate quotes to cover any planned treatment abroad.

 

In addition, PJ Hayman will be taking part in the seminar programme to talk about the benefits and importance of medical tourism insurance.
