Overview

• Admiral states it is handling the case urgently and is awaiting information from his GP to determine if any undeclared pre-existing conditions affect the claim.
• The family says they have not been told what will be paid and report that a claims manager urged a rapid return to Tenerife based on hospital assessments.
