The certificate must have specific wording and must be from an approved list. AXA sells a bare bones policy that covers this for cheap

Once your insurance company provides you with the letter of coverage. The certificate would be part of the package and thats what you submit to immigration.

Secondly you have to go to your GP and get a letter stipulating that you dont have any of the deseases stipulated.
