It would probably work out a lot cheaper for them. So,if holiday makers don't see the doc. , then no claim allowed. Simple ! Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it.

It would probably work out a lot cheaper for them. So,if holiday makers don't see the doc. , then no claim allowed. Simple ! On all the insurance claims I've seen and done, the claimant has to produce a doctor's sick note/report. If you aren't sick enough to need to see a doctor then surely its a trivial claim/ailment. The further you are down the pay scale, the more 'essential' you are when the s--- hits the fan...
