Does Aviva cover pre-existing conditions?

How we deal with pre-existing conditions, and if we can or can’t cover one, depends on the type of underwriting you choose.

A 'pre-existing condition' is when you've had symptoms, medication, advice, treatment or diagnostic tests for a disease, illness or injury before taking out health cover.

Your health insurance might not cover a pre-existing condition because it’s meant for new, unexpected or short-term conditions that happen after you take out the policy.
