Hello Trevlad, we have made enquiries about travel insurance for my dad, who has heart problems but has not had surgery. We have found it very difficult to get affordable medical insurance,most of the premiums quoted were all for around eight hundred pounds, for two weeks in Florida, with excesses ranging between eight thousand and ten thousand pounds.Let us know if you get any reasonable quotes.

My Dad travels with us and is the same scenario as your father-in-law.
He obtains his travel insurance from

I can't recall the premium and excess payable (I'd need to check with him) but I know it was reasonable.
No harm in calling for a quote.

We found travel insurance at an affordable level for my partner, who suffers from severe heart problems, at the British Heart Foundation website. £200 for an annual policy providing no stay is more than 31 days.

Can't remember the figure but my Dad got a reasonable quote from Bradford & Bingley.
There are other threads on this where you'll get more ideas if you do a search.

Dennis has issues with his kidneys and the hospital recommended Worldwide Insurance who don't use the points system,but you get to speak to a medically qualified person who asses the risk
Marks and Spencer will also provide travel insurance for medical problems . They will say yes or no but will not weight the insurance against you if you are accepted.
