It is hard to rate an insurance company until you have to use it, that is when you will know how effective the company insurance is.

I am never quite sure that "emergencies" might occur when I plan a trip. Things happens, whether it is with me or my traveling partner. As the cost of the trip goes up, travel insurance is one way for me to purchase piece of mind. Nationwide offered an inexpensive ways to make sure that my trip was cover.

Since I did not have a claim, I cannot rate that part. I just felt safe to be insured in case something did happen. Nationwide gave me that safety net.

This insurance was purchased for a short trip to Canada where US medicare isn't covered. Thankfully, the insurance wasn't needed, but it was well worth the peace of mind.
