Travel Insurance with medicines covered

[Emmeedask]

Hi
My son is going on a school trip to spain soon. There is group insurance for or the pupils but I want extra insurance as my son has special needs and takes quite afew medications.

All the insurance companies I have contacted so far will ffer extra medical cover but the one exclution is his medication, if it gets lost/stolen. Its the main reason I want the insurance and am having no luck.

Also going to america with the family and want to take out a good insurance that doesn't skimp on lost/stolen money or personal possestions and medical cover. I want us to be well covered.

Does anyone know where best to find what I'm looking for?

Thanks x

I would suggest that you speak to a local Insurance Broker who would be able to market your specific requirements, as they would not appear to be items covered under a standard policy and may need tailor made cover.

We get our travel insurance from Direct Line - as far as we're concerned, they are marvellous. Why don't you give them a bell?
