[QUOTE="Twitterology, post: 196503, member: 33742"] I am in the process of asking a number of insurance companies to see if they are interested in creating new and less expensive travel insurance products for people with diabetes. I have had responses from Geico and State Farm in the US who have at least expressed an interest. My idea was to link premiums to age and duration of diabetes, use of insulin compared to other therapies and presence or absence of complications. Once my travel site is able to provide guidance on testing, changing insulin for journeys crossing time zones, airline and hotel meal carb count etc this should reduce "risk" from an insurance point of view and therefore hopefully the premium! As soon as I here more I will post on my website for discussion. [/QUOTE]
