Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
Over all plan was wonderful. I was a little confused with who to contact with questions. The travel nurse herself was wonderful but the coordination between leaving the hospital and the trip home was a nightmare including me staying unaccompanied at a hotel for over 24 hours when her flight to me was delayed with no notification until I called hours after she was to arrive.
Dairne M. would recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

I did not have to use any of the services this policy provided, so I have no experience dealing with the company. It covered the important trip risks and concerns at reasonable levels.

My parents are in their 90’s. It was very comforting knowing if something happen prior or during my trip I could be home without loosing the money invested in my trip.

Fortunately, I didn't have to file a claim. This policy covered exactly what I wanted to cover at a reasonable price. The documents provided clear descriptions of the coverage and how to proceed if I needed to make a claim. Overall good value for money.
