camper49 Posted August 31, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 31, 2016 We always buy insurance. However have always waited until final payment due to the fact that we could ..if needed..cancel without penalty. Is there an insurance that can be purchased at final payment that would include pre existing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirwired Posted August 31, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 31, 2016 CSA, and I believe HTH, offer such a policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there an insurance that can be purchased at final payment that would include pre existing? go to http://www.tripinsurancestore.com answer a couple of questions, click enter and up pops about 9 policies broken down with various options. One of those options that you can search by is pre-existing conditions. You don't have to buy, the site doesn't ask for e-mail (I think) youy can just side by side compare.

marci22 Posted March 27, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 27, 2017 CSA will include a pre existing condtion waiver as long as you have not made final payment. Warning: it doesn't matter when final payment is due: once you have paid in full, the clock starts ticking and you have to purchase your policy within 24 hours. I just found this out!

Rare GeezerCouple Posted March 27, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 27, 2017 CSA will include a pre existing condtion waiver as long as you have not made final payment. Warning: it doesn't matter when final payment is due: once you have paid in full, the clock starts ticking and you have to purchase your policy within 24 hours. I just found this out! There is at least one CSA policy that can include the pre-existing condition exclusion waiver IF one purchases coverage within 24 hours of final payment (defined specifically). Note that this is "within final payment", not "within final payment deadline". And your first sentence is not correct: "CSA will include a pre existing condtion waiver as long as you have not made final payment." One has the next 24 hours to start the coverage. (I have no idea how they measure that "24 hours", and it could matter... We've never waited 'til the last minute. For one thing, one must be "able to travel" when the insurance is started, so if someone had an unexpected medical emergency that wouldn't interfere with the trip at all, at the time one needed to make that payment... I wouldn't want to have to deal with that.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how they determine the exact moment your time runs out, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lolane1 Posted April 20, 2017 #9 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Just purchased CSA custom luxe, which indeed covers pre-existing conditions if purchased before or within 24 hours of final payment. Just a thought, Email confirmation would, of course, record the time and date of both final payment and insurance payment as email confirmations were sent almost immediately by the cruise line and the insurance company. Another post said " you must be able to travel." What the clause continues to say is that you must be able to travel at the time of purchase of the insurance. This obviously is to exclude purchasing a plan when you are already sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
