What Is a 'medical history declaration' Cover?

Medical history declaration cover refers to cover which is supported by a full medical questionnaire completed and signed by you.

In this form it is essential that you provide all the information required by insurers to avoid future questions or if you are very unfortunate, a rejection of your claim.

If you are not sure about a medical condition, then declare it anyway.

If you have a medical condition that may reoccur, the insurance company may exclude that particular condition, and then review the possibility for inclusion into the plan in later years.
