I had to change the travel dates shortly before leaving on my trip. Generali Global Assistance quickly made the adjustment and sent me an updated policy. That customer service was very appreciated.
Fortunately, I did not have to file a claim on this trip, but I was glad to know that if my flights were messed up or if baggage was lost, we would be covered.

This review points out the poor coverage of most policies on the market today. Insurance coverage has to be rated upon the actual care,concern and paid coverage in the event of a major health event . Imagine getting stranded in a 3rd world country and subjected to long term lower quality health care because an insurance company employee decides the care is “adequate. This policy, like most others, has inadequate coverage requirements for evacuation/repatriation. It is unreasonable not to cover for return to home venue rather than closest facility. Also unreasonable not to take into consideration the best medical care available rather than merely “adequateâ€`.
The cost of coverage for a 6 day trip was excessive.

Although we didn't file a claim, we made a couple changes prior to leaving on our 20 day trip to Ecuador and the Galapagos. The changes were handled easily, promptly, and documented shortly after. We would use Generali again when the need for TI arises.

Travel insurance providers, who maintain large databases of skilled medical providers and transportation firms, are skilled at handling these types of emergency medical situations. The providers' 24 hour emergency assistance centers are staffed with highly trained individuals who can handle language translation and are trained to ensure that escorts and the appropriate medical equipment are on board. They will coordinate with the host country, local authorities, and the traveler’s physician to determine the best and safest method of transportation as well as managing payment and timing of services. The 24 hr assistance also keeps in touch with family members advising them of the schedule and the traveler's progress in getting back home which includes handling immigration documentation, flight clearances, coordinating ground transportation as well as entry to an appropriate medical facility.
