Insurance is always a good idea when planning a pricey once-in-a-lifetime dream vacation. Fortunately, our trip was fully enjoyed without any interruption or issue. Having this coverage gave us peace of mind knowing that if anything went off the rails, our financial loss would be minimized.

It turns out (in the small print somewhere) that to process a small claim you must first submit your claim to Medicare. I believe Medicare does not cover overseas, but one must go through the process anyway. I believe most all foreign travelers are older and under Medicare, so this effectively drags out the claims process to discourage pursuing a claim and save your company money.
After buying trip insurance a number of times previously, I will never do this again!
I will self insure.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry to learn that you are dissatisfied with this plan. You are correct in that the AXA Assistance USA Silver plan is a secondary policy. The majority of travel insurance policies are secondary, but InsureMyTrip does offer a selection of primary policies. In the future, please consider calling us prior to purchase so that we can guide you towards policies that best suit your needs.

    Medicare does not cover outside of the United States, but some Medicare Supplement plans do provide some coverage while traveling abroad. If a travel insurance plan is secondary, the insured person(s) would be required to file a claim with the Medicare Supplement first. If coverage is denied or only partially provided, the travel insurance would cover the remainder, up to the policy limit.

    Please call us at 800-487-4772 if you have any questions pertaining to this policy, or about primary vs secondary coverage. We would be happy to assist you.

      AXA Assistance USA has issued the following reply:
      "Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any difficulties you may have experienced in filing a claim. We appreciate customer comments and continually use customer feedback to improve our products. At the time of your claim, the silver plan provided coverage secondary to Medicare. The gold and platinum plans serve as primary coverage and it is not necessary to file with Medicare first. In the future, you may call us so we may assist you in finding the best policy and benefits to fit your travel needs."

I developed intestinal disorder and lost 10 pounds but was concerned about the complications related to a hospital visit so I waited until I got home.

Also, the Greek pharmacies were closed during many of the times I was most in need (Imodium) so again did without.

While this was not related to the insurance, it made me realize that I was unable to utilize the coverage.

It was a comfort to know that if the trip was canceled we had a reimbursement policy.

I'll have to think hard about future coverage since there were additional extenuating issues.

I bought the AXA Gold plan for a trip of a lifetime. We planned the trip a year in advance, and about 3 months before departure I worried about our elderly parents' potential for medical problems that could interfere, so I bought this plan. To my total shock, I was diagnosed with an urgent medical problem a week before departure, and we had to cancel. I filed a claim with AXA, and was pleasantly surprised by their considerate response. They employ very nice representatives to talk to. They paid the claim amount, a big one, promptly. I highly recommend them, and hopefully I will use them again. I strongly recommend getting insurance in general, as you never know what might happen.
