I had no claim to make, and therefore, have no comments. Although I have good health care insurance, I always buy travel insurance. If you need it, you need it. For example: I was on a trans-Atlantic cruise that left from Tampa FL. Apparently the airline on which about 30 people flew screwed up and they didn't get their luggage before boarding the ship. Their travel insurance provider(s) shipped their luggage to our first port stop in Bermuda, which was 4 days later. The people were also reimbursed by the insurance companies (I don't know if this company was one of the providers) to buy some clothes before leaving Tampa so they'd have something to wear until we docked in Bermuda.

My wife had a health issue that arose about a week before our trip. I called your claim office because I needed clarity about the coverage in case it was determined by our doctor that we would have to cancel the trip.
The person I spoke to could not give us clarity as to whether our claim would be honored. I don't think our request was unreasonable. If the doctor had told us that surgery was needed sooner rather than later or that my wife would not be healthy enough to make the trip, we would have had to cancel. I would have like clarity from your staff. Instead, all they would tell me was that a decision regarding coverage could not be made until after a claim was filed. I did not find this helpful.
Luckily, my wife's doctor told her that she could postpone the surgery until after we returned from the trip, so we didn't have to cancel. However, I hope you can empathize with our situation.

Travel Guard Silver
This review isn't for this specific purchase but rather in general for AIG Travelguard insurance. We have traveled extensively for about 20 years and have always purchased Travelguard insurance for our overseas and sometimes our domestic trips. We have had to completely cancel 2 trips over the years due to a family death and a serious family illness and had one trip extended due to an airline disruption. All three claims (the most recent was in 2018) were paid quickly and completely with no issues whatsoever from AIG TG. All staff that I spoke with for questions or assistance prior to filing the claims were helpful and knowledgeable. It is hard to know which insurance to pick unless you know someone who has had to file a claim - I definitely recommend this company based on my experiences so far.

We didn't use the plan, but it was nice to have, especially being in a country where we did not speak the language!

With all travel insurance products, the claims administrator is required to adjudicate claims based on the terms and conditions of the policy. Unfortunately, in no event can a claim be pre-determined, as you would be required to provide Proof of Loss to determine appropriate coverage.
The Generali Global Assistance Preferred plan has the following number one covered reason to cancel or interrupt your trip:
"The Sickness, Injury or death of you, your Family Member, your Traveling Companion or your Service Animal. The Sickness or Injury must first commence while your coverage is in effect under the Policy, must require the in-person treatment by a Physician, and must be so disabling in the written opinion of a Physician as to prevent you from taking your Trip (either because your condition prevents your travel, or because your Family Member, Traveling Companion or your Service Animal requires your care);"
This plan will exclude:
"Sickness or Injury during the 180-day period immediately prior to your
effective date for which you or your Traveling Companion:
(1) received, or received a recommendation for, a diagnostic test, examination, or medical treatment; or
(2) took or received a prescription for drugs or medicine.
Item 2 of this definition does not apply to a condition which is treated or controlled solely through the taking of prescription drugs or medicine and remains treated or controlled without any adjustment or change in the required prescription throughout the 180-day period before coverage
is effective under this Policy."
We are happy to hear that you were able to take your trip and we wish all the best for you and your wife. We would be happy to speak with you further about your experience and/or provide any clarification of policy terms and conditions. Please let us know if you have any questions or need further assistance. We can be reached at 800-487-4722.
