The GIG website gives details of The Asking Relevant Questions project. It is a two year research initiative funded by Bupa.

The project is building on the Patient Supplementary Questionnares that have been developed and piloted by GIG which aim to ensure only the correct information is presented to the insurer at point of application. This therefore speeds up the application process negating the need for expensive and time consuming GP reports, whilst also making the whole process more transparent for the consumer.  As part of the ongoing work GIG has worked alongside Which? to develop a handy guide to buying Travel Insurance.  Further detail can be accessed on the GIG site.
