Holiday, Travel Insurance with Kidney Disease

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is thought to affect around 1 in 10 people overall. It is more common in older age groups: around half of over 75s develop the condition, whereas for young adults it may be 1 in 50 people. The term Chronic Kidney Disease is in some ways misleading – in many cases, the condition develops simply as a natural result of ageing.

People with CKD are advised to place particular emphasis on leading a healthy lifestyle, which can include things such as losing weight; eating a balanced, low-salt diet; stopping smoking and reducing alcohol intake; drinking around 2 litres of water every day; and taking regular physical exercise. Medication may also be prescribed in order to help control blood pressure. Less than 1 in 1,000 people with CKD will ever require dialysis or a kidney transplant.

If you have mild kidney disease, going on holiday should not be a problem – in fact, the rest and relaxation will probably do you a world of good. If you are on dialysis, this will not mean you cannot travel; you will just need to take a bit more time and care to plan a holiday that is right for you. Speak to the renal team at your hospital, as they will be able to help with ensuring you make the right arrangements, including booking treatment in advance.

When applying for travel insurance, you must declare your CKD (however mild your symptoms) as a pre-existing medical condition. Travel insurance companies may also require a letter from your doctor or hospital, confirming that you are fit to travel.

Once you have planned the perfect holiday, we believe that getting the right travel insurance should not present a headache – it should be quick, simple, straightforward and fair. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case.

By joining this group, you will add your voice to our mission to create a fairer insurance industry for people with existing medical conditions, and get a good deal on travel insurance for yourself as well!

Please note, for travel insurance for kidney transplant patients, join our Travel Insurance for Transplant Patients Group.

Get 8.6% off travel insurance with kidney disease from Travel Adder - exclusively for members

Excellent news - we've negotiated an **8.6% discount** on Travel Insurance with Travel Adder. The offer is available exclusively to members of Bought By Many, and you won't find it anywhere else.

Having listened to feedback from members, there were two reasons why we chose to work with Travel Adder:

  • The combination of Travel Adder's already competitive prices and the discount meant that they offered members the best value-for-money

  • Travel Adder gives you a choice over whether or not you want to include or exclude cover for your kidney disease or other pre existing medical conditions

You can get a quote for holiday insurance and apply online at the Travel Adder website - just click on the "Get a Quote" button. (Please note that the discount is applied automatically when you click the button).

Unfortunately Travel Adder aren't currently able to offer insurance for people who are over 85, though they are working on it. In the meantime, we wanted to make sure we could do something to help all members, so we created a Travel Insurance Over 85 group - if you're over 85, please join this group, and we'll be in touch to let you know about a different offer that's now available for you.
