Just eight months after the innovative Health Traveller was launched, another health tourism insurance product has been launched. The specialist policy is being offered by Leila Wilcox, following her success on Channel Four’s Make me a Million.

Her new business, Angelis Insurance, is providing a form of travel insurance for those people who are travelling abroad to get dental or medical treatment, including cosmetic surgery .

The insurance company provide special travel insurance, as well as extra benefits relating to the treatment. Insurance cover is provided for out of pocket expenses, for instance if a follow up appointment is needed abroad.
