Cardiac cover

Hello Kevin,

This forum is quite active, so you should receive feedback quickly.

In the meantime, although I cannot guarantee the availability of a specific coverage like cardiac insurance, you can request a free quote from one of our insurance partners here: https://www.expat.com/en/insurance/europe/cyprus/

All the best,

There are plenty of cardiac consultants in Paphos. I had an implanted heart monitor with a failed battery. I called and was seen the next day for a full check-up then referred to Limassol and saw the consultant the next day. Then the old was removed and a new one implanted all within 1 week!

If I have any issues I have the mobile number for the consultant to call and he will see me the same day.

Given this I would not pay extra for specific cover. The medical system here is night and day compared with the UK. You can even get a hip or knee replacement op in a few weeks!

@phildraper sounds good. Do you know if any other heart related issues would be covered by insurance ? Say you needs a bypass, would that be excluded because you have a heart monitor?

Sorry I don't know about that.
