Do I need to notify my insurance company?
If an insurance company asks about diabetes, you must tell them that you have the condition. Failure to do so can invalidate your cover in the event of a claim. Failure to notify the DVLA can also invalidate cover. It is always worth shopping around for quotes from a number of insurers, as there can be a big difference in premiums.
