Atlas Journey Economy
We bought the Atlas Journey Economy plan never imagining the worst-- a serious accident in small city Sicily resulting in a 5 week hospital stay, transfer by ground and air ambulance, surgery (in a public hospital in Sicily, not recommended!) The company that Atlas uses to facilitate care, OnCall International, did some things well and some things VERY poorly. Their coordination of care depends heavily on the care provider (doctor) being willing to communicate with their medical team, resulting in delays of (what I perceived as) timely and appropriate transfers for medical care, and return home. That being said, they were always available to me by phone, quickly authorized care where covered and appropriate. Their staff on the whole was supportive and helpful.
I recognize our case was quite complicated by the horrible attitude and lack of cooperation by the care providers in Sicily (noted to me by the families of other patients and local people as well, and validated by the doctors in Rome who, despite repeated attempts by OnCall International NEVER provided a detailed care summary to the doctors in Rome who assumed treatment, or to me). I believe that OnCall did try their best, but their "local affiliates" in both Sicily and Rome were less effective than I would have liked in getting things done in a timely manner to get my husband out of Sicily and to Rome.
Otherwise I think the company did an excellent job of getting care for my husband against the backdrop of a really difficult situation.
I am currently in the process of submitting the non-medical (trip interruption) portion of the claim so can't yet comment on the brokers used by the company for that. I will say that the WorldTrips agent was very helpful in pointing me in the right direction regarding contact numbers, forms needed and the like.
I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again-- although given what we have cost them they might not be happy to insure us again!

Paid $1900+ for am IMG plan and filed a $375 claim for a "no-show" hotel due to airline cancelling flight from JFK to Rome and an 18 hour departure delay. IMG declined claimed because it was a "no show pilot" and not another covered reason. Spoke to IMT and they are trying to advocate for me and I have also appealed to IMG who said they will try to get back to me in a month. My claim is 18% of the premium! Also recommended IMT to good friends for a month-long overseas trip in July that also experienced cancelations and IMG refused payment of some clothing items bought because they could only provide AMEX proof and not the original receipts. It appears IMG is in the CUSTOMER NO SERVICE BUSINESS and is reflecting badly on IMT. Your reps have always been outstanding, but this is out of their hands.

I looked at several plans and this seemed like the best, as well as many good reviews from people who actually filed a claim. Fortunately I did not need to file a claim,

Atlas Journey Economy
My claim was due to illness. My companion could not travel. I provided a letter from her doctor. Due to confidentially (HIPPA) I could not request a doctor to complete a separate form. I was only asking for a small portion of my travel ticket to be return. Your customer service agent would never refer me to a supervisor and every case cannot be settle via a form. Via face book and every person i speak with will no about your stealing insurance money not providing restitution.

Atlas Journey Preferred
Seemed like this was the right coverage for me - never used it so hard to know how good it is - seemed expensive.
