This benefit is usually restricted to what is called sudden or acute onset of a pre-existing medical condition. It specifies that the condition has not occurred in the last six months and according to your doctor, is relatively stable and safe to travel. (See restrictions below.)

3) has had a change of medication within six months prior to commencement of the trip or, if Annual Travel has been chosen, prior to each departure from the country of permanent residence,

5) has reached a state where any attempt of further treatment has been abandoned, or has been refused treatment,
6) is waiting to receive treatment, or has been referred to another place of treatment,
