Seems fair priced for medical coverage. Never filed a claim so I don’t know how good or bad. In reality.

I filed a claim for a trip that was interrupted due to Covid 19. I am sure they are gonna deny the claim because our situation was complicated and hard to provide some of documents they want (stranded to a place, couldn't get to see a real doctor, etc). However, denied or not, I just want a result to move on. They are ghosting me and it's frustrating.

We did not have to make a claim, so I cannot comment on that part of the policy. The coverage was good.

Was very easy to put in place--seemed to provide the exact coverage we were looking for in a responsible and reliable manner. Would use again, though it should be noted that we didn't have to file a claim.

I was extremely impressed with this. I had to have minor surgery while in Europe. They helped get me to a hospital, prearranged for payment directly to the hospital, and promptly paid for my out of pocket expenses.
Thank goodness I got this insurance. Seriously never travel abroad without it!

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.Oct 15,2019

We had a bag either stolen or lost off baggage cart. it was a carry on bag. Was told it was not covered because it wasn't checked in. That was not acceptable to us. will never use this Insurance company again.
