The proof of whether this is a good plan can only be discovered if you need it! We didn’t use it, our trip went fine so I have NO idea if this is a good plan.

I did not need to USE the plan since all went well on the trip...so I do not really know how good the policy, the service or the company is. But cost was reasonable.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
In searching for travel insurance before my trip I found insure my trip. I determined that it provided exactly what I wanted and needed for a reasonable price. Although, I had checked with my very good health insurance company and determined I was also covered by them I wanted the extra protection coverage. It made a difference when I was abroad knowing I was well covered with health insurance. I am fortunate that I didn't have to file a claim but the peace of mind was nice.

We didn't need it, so the best kind of insurance. The sales experience was excellent, the representative was helpful, patient and had the answers.
