CEO Sasha Gainullin and Managing Director Paul Simmonds are excited to announce the launch of battleface.

battleface provides unique travel insurance benefits and services to travellers visiting or working internationally including in the world’s most challenging places and covers dangerous places, emergency medical treatment, evacuation and accidents, adventure activities and travel to isolated places with 24/7 on-the-ground assistance and claims services. battleface also works with membership-based associations, organizations and companies to strengthen their brands by custom building travel insurance products that fit their specific needs.

“At battleface, we don’t believe that ‘the Middle of Nowhere’ is an excuse for substandard coverage. That’s why we’re working hard to bring insurance and services to travellers going places all over the world,” says CEO Sasha Gainullin.

battleface’s packages are geared towards conflict zone and emerging market travel and includes the below benefits:

  • Customizable packages for individuals and groups

  • 24/7 Emergency and Travel Assistance through battleface International

“We are also partnering with battleface International because they are widely respected in-on-the-ground claims and travel emergency medical assistance and hugely experienced in providing effective solutions to complex and difficult claims needs,” says CEO Sasha Ganuillin.

battleface International’s team is over a hundred strong and speaks over 50 languages. Their field agents provide emergency medical services, find the most appropriate hospitals, translate, organize, handle logistics and liaise with local governments, all using cashless medical networks to keep things moving efficiently and effectively.

battleface was developed by battleface Insurance Services, an insurance intermediary and coverholder at Lloyd’s of London, the world’s specialist insurance and reinsurance market.

PRE-EXISTING MEDICAL CONDITION

Pre-Existing Medical Condition means an illness, disease, or other condition during the 180 day period immediately prior to the date Your coverage is effective :
  1. received or received a recommendation for a test, examination, or medical treatment for a condition which first manifested itself, worsened or became acute, or had symptoms which would have prompted a reasonable person to seek diagnosis, care or treatment; or
  2. took or received a prescription for drugs or medicine. Item (2) of this definition does not apply to a condition which is treated or controlled solely through the taking of prescription drugs or medicine and remains treated or controlled without any adjustment or change in the required prescription throughout the 180 day period before coverage is effective under this policy.
  3. required a change in prescribed medication. Change in prescribed medication means the dosage or frequency of a medication has been reduced, increased, stopped and/or new medications have been prescribed due to the worsening of an underlying condition that is being treated with the medication, unless the change is:

    2. an adjustment to insulin or anti-coagulant dosage.
If you, or someone you are traveling with, has a Pre-Existing Medical Condition, you can still buy a policy from us but there is no cover for any claim arising directly or indirectly from that condition.
