Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
Nationwide does not consider the quarantine of an entire country due COVID-19 a valid claim. W were half into our trip when Norway closed all borders to entry to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Now Nationwide wants proof I was denied entry. Do I need a picture of me trying to cross the border? Forget appealing the ruling unless you in a select 12 few states where you can appeal to the Insurance commission. In the other 38 states it seems Nationwide is judge and jury. I certainly do not understand the great reviews of this terrible coverage.

Due to my father's death we had to cancel a trip to Sweden and Denmark. Once we submitted all the paperwork (electronically), the claim was processed quickly and the payment sent. The amount we requested and substantiated was sent. We did take the time to provide a lot of documentation which probably helped make our claim an easy one to process. I would use Nationwide again for trip insurance.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry to learn that you broke your tooth during your trip. We hope that fellow customers will find your review and our response to be educational and informative.

    The Nationwide Essential plan provides coverage up to 500 USD per person for dental Emergency Treatment for an Accidental Injury to Sound Natural Teeth. Both the Accidental Injury and the dental Emergency Treatment must occur during the Trip. If treatment is not obtained during the trip, and the traveler waits until returning home to the United States, the travel insurance expires and is not responsible for the medical bills.

    Please call us at 800-487-4722 if you have any questions or concerns. We would be happy to assist you.

I always buy trip insurance and I always buy it from Insuremytrip. It is easy to pick the right level of insurance at a price you can afford. It just makes for a worry free journey knowing you have back up!
I have never filed a claim and hope to never have to but I've got it covered with these plans

It's very comforting to know you are covered if the worst happens. Glad that did not happen. Nobody should travel without coverage.
Cost does escalate with age
Thank you.
