We did not have any claims and did not need to use the insurance, but it gave us peace of mind to have it in place in case it was necessary.

What an awful company. They got zero customer service, and I don't think they care at all.
Their attitude is just whatever.
So, I've got a claim back in October. I submitted it to them in early November.
2 months later, I hear nothing from them. I had to login myself to their messy website.
There's zero communication from them. Zero.
So I logged, in, went to the claims section, and there's t he PDF with the claim outcome PDF.
I click on it. and what does it say? Denied! I had minor medical expenses under 900 USD.
In their reason for denying the claim says, " We could not contact the hospital to confirm the expenses." Are you kidding me? I'm sure they called the hospital once, and that's all, denied the claim.
By the way in two months, nobody contacted me, not even an email, or even a notice of anything.
It's absolutely ridiculous.
Stay away from this fraudulent company!

Nationwide Mutual Insurance
Essential
Have bought this type of policy several times for peace of mind, but never needed it until this year. My wife got sick during our cruise and we missed our transfer home to airport due to a trip to emergency room. Thankfully, she was fine and luckily I bought the insurance as they covered all medical costs not covered by my insurance plus reimbursed airport transfer fees. Make sure you submit all required documentation including personal health insurance info. Customer service rep was so kind, helpful and patient with me throughout. Re-enforces why buying travel insurance is worth the peace of mind. I'll never travel without insurance again. Highly recommend this very reasonably priced plan.

I was diagnosed with two Cranial Aneurysms over a month before my cruise. I was scheduled for surgery, and told I would not be able to travel or cruise.
I filed my claim, provided a letter on hospital stationary with an explanation. The letter from my neurosurgeon was one of the two accepted pieces of paperwork required. I sent in a copy of everything else they requested, as I had previously discussed with one of their phone representatives.
In the last month, I have had several emails telling me my paperwork was not acceptable, and even after I explained everything to them, they kept asking for different types of copies of payments, etc.
I understand that they do not want to pay fraudulent claims, however, I find their requests to be something that they could have been handled better through a phone call to me.
My advice to anyone using them, realize that they will require all kinds of bills and and cruise paperwork, amongst other things. As the woman I spoke with advised me, you always have to read all of the fine print in the contract. So, I find myself unhappy with them because I believe they could be handling this better. They are the professionals dealing with this daily. When using any insurance agency, do a much more thorough job of reading their requirements, should you need to file a claim.

UPDATE: My claim was paid on 2/7/24, and I am happy that this process is over. Please make sure when you purchase travel insurance, that you read the small print, have copies of everything and anything related to how you paid for the cruise, and if related to illness, all of the forms they require. It is best not to go by what a representative may tell you on the phone, but by what is in their fine print.
This will make the process easier for you.Feb 09,2024

It took more than 2 months and several phone calls to receive payment for a very straightforward claim. There are also absurd requirement for redundant documentation (e.g. a copy of a train ticket with the amount paid stated clearly on the ticket was not enough — they also required a copy of my credit card statement).

I purchased the insurance before my trip. I had no problems and did not have to use it but as the saying goes better safe than sorry.

00Because I did not visit a doctor no part of insurance would kick in. Never mind that I had seen my family doctor before I left. And we did fly home from Aruba at our cost. The cruise was supposed to be from December 9-19. We flew home on the 12th. Couldn't get anything back. We have a cruise leaving December 23 . We had to cancel it too. Bought the same insurance too> nothing back. I forgot- we did get paid our insurance back! Even tho it says you have 15 to review it you really only nave 14 days . I know because when I told them I was exercising my right they had to send it "upstairs" to get it oked. Will not buy a buy any insurance from them.
