Comprehensive plans offer the most benefits, including Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption. These plans provide the best protection for the investment you have made in your trip.
Insuremytrip is a great resource. Easy to use and compare different plans. Most important their customer service folks are knowledgable and easy to reach.

Might be worth it for catastrophic coverage but not much else.
On extended travel, I called for help refilling my prescription medications while in the UK. Had to give a LOT of info over the phone to someone seemed very ill-informed about the policy -- I had to explain to her. Said she'd get back to me. Several days later (!), someone emailed and just offered a list of medical practices I could visit in area, ALL of which were inappropriate/useless (e.g., cardiology only practice when I needed a general practice referral to get a UK prescription). I found better information just Googling on my own. I had to solve the problem myself rather than getting any help. And why did it take several days for someone to reply with useless information?
Even worse: My spouse had an injury during our trip for which he sought treatment in the UK. We started a claim for it but then saw that the documentation required to fill out was so extensive, that it would take several hours of work for us to complete all the required forms, so we gave up as not being worth our time. His medical costs were less than $500. There should be different documentation requirements for small claims like ours vs. more expensive ones!
In short, we tried to use this policy but it turned out to be worthless to us.

Thank you for your feedback. Berkshire Travel Protection is a comprehensive plan and does offer to wide range of benefits. However, we did forward your request to Berkshire Hathaway who did contact their 3rd party provider and agree that their provider failed to provide you with the level of service that you had a right to expect. Berkshire Hathaway offers their apology and appreciates your bringing this issue to their attention.
This plan provided peace of mind for our trip. My wife's health insurance only covers in-network providers so we needed a trip insurance plan that would cover any health issues during our trip.

Luckily we did not need to utilize our plan but watching the plight of the Thomas Cooke travelers made us glad that we had a safety net. We will always protect our travel with an insurance policy because the world is wide and wonderful but things can go wrong.
