Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
The plan I purchased had the coverage I needed at a great price. Thankfully I didn't need to file a claim, and my travels were worry free knowing that I was covered.

I very much appreciate the fact that the policy included some coverage for medical and emergency dental care, since I am on Medicare and that does not cover services outside the US. However, I wish the coverage limits were higher, even as an option. Knowing what a hospitalization can cost even for "minor" accidents or short-term illnesses, I was nervous about the coverage limitations in the policy.

Have used InsureMyTrip several times and I like the ability to pick the coverage I want, at the rate provided. I work a great deal with insurance, and find that one should really consider travel insurance for their trips. Medicare does not cover care while out of the US and most commercial plans greatly reduce or negate coverage once out of the US. Thank you, as I find it very helpful and don't book with cruise lines as I do better on your site with coverages and choice.

Did not have any problems we could not take care of on our own. Thankfully we did not have to use insurance but it was a comfort to know it was there.

The customer service representative I spoke with was very friendly and helpful. This was the second year in a row I used InsureMyTrip and will continue to do so as I go to Aruba every year. Thank you.
