Specialist medical travel insurance for treatment abroad 

Planning treatment abroad? Make sure you're properly protected.

Most standard travel insurance policies do not cover trips taken for planned medical treatment, leaving you at risk of travelling without protection.

Medical Travel Shield provides specialist insurance for people travelling overseas for:

  • Cosmetic surgery

  • Dental treatment

  • Elective surgery (including bariatric procedures)

  • IVF and fertility treatment

Our cover is designed to protect your journey, treatment and recovery, giving you confidence before, during and after your trip.
