Thankfully everything went smoothly with trip and didn't need to use the insurance, and I thank God daily for my good health and safety and I didn't need to use the insurance for any medical conditions. Was good to have the peace of mind of knowing it was there if needed. I felt price was reasonable.

I didnt need to "use" the insurance (which is good news). But in the past, I've had to file a claim and was quite impressed with the entire process.

Luckily we didn't need to use anything but being on Medicare now, it was reassuring to have coverage in case it was needed.

Fortunately for us we did not submit any claims, but it was still good feeling that we had a protection outside of USA.

I don't think the questions are fair. I didn't file a claim and therefore, don't know how good the insurance coverage would have been.The policy covered peace of mind
I buy insurance for peace of mind hoping to never have to use it.
