In reply to NigelHurst:
I use GetGoing as they only have a small surcharge to cover some pre-existing medical conditions that I have. If you tick yes to one of the questions on the application form you are directed to a simple online health questionnaire to declare any conditions, they then confirm that you are covered for each each of them. In comarison, a couple of years ago I decided to go back the the BMC and I did their over the phone health screening, and their underwriters then wanted a small fortune - over £100 - for 10 days in Ariege and still wouldn't cover one of them. Getgoing have a series of bolt-on for sports, I think that number 5 is the one you need for sport climbing. Just before Christmas I took out 8 days cover for a trip to El Chorro, total cost just under £45 and it covers all my health issues and includes travel insurance as well as rescue and medical. I also have Austrian Alpine Club membership (which broadens the regions you can climb) in, but as one post above notes, while they have no medical questions the small print does put some limitations on cover for pre-existing medical conditions which is why I take out the backup.
