What is Travel Insurance for Arrhythmia
Why It’s Important to Declare Your Arrhythmia
Many standard Travel Insurance policies will exclude or decline cover for medical conditions like arrhythmia. Therefore, it’s vital that you declare your condition to a specialist travel insurance provider. This will ensure you have the comprehensive cover in place that you need. If you don’t declare your condition and have a medical emergency while on holiday, you could be left with an expensive hospital bill, as any claim could be invalidated. Furthermore, in some countries such as Spain and the USA, hospital costs can be extremely high.SWIPE TO COMPARE POLICIES

Travel Tips for Travelling with Arrhythmia
- Check with your doctor that you are fit to travel
- You know your body better than anyone. But double check your destination is suitable for your planned activities. For example, some travellers with irregular heartbeat like to avoid destinations with lots of hills, or accommodation with only stairs to use
- If excessively high or low temperatures (and high altitudes) affect your heart, consider this when booking a holiday. Or ask your doctor for further advice on which climates are best for your condition
- In the event of an abnormal heart rhythm, take deep, slow breaths, that begin in your abdomen. This can help regulate your heartbeat
