Insure my trip has worked to provide me with travel coverage for the past 15 years. I have always been happy with the results. I have been insured by Nationwide several times and have previously filed two travel claims. Those claims were very promptly and satisfactorily settled. I trust them with my travel coverage.

Thankfully I did not need to file a claim, but it was reassuring to know I was covered.

Be sure you understand the difference between Trip DELAY and Trip INTERRUPTION from the Insurer's point of view. It's a difference of a maximum benefit of your trip cost (Interruption) and a maximum of $150 daily (Delay). I still don't understand it.
I was Quarantined in Switzerland during my 2-week trip after testing positive for COVID and was unable to return home as scheduled. I would consider this an Interruption of my trip. Nationwide called it a Delay. As such, I was reimbursed only $450 of my $850 costs for the 2-day interruption. Thankfully it wasn't any longer as the cheapest lodging I could find was $260 nightly.
In addition, after spending 4 hours gathering the plethora of documents and receipts required and mailing it (trying to file multiple documents online was impossible), my claim was delayed for 3 months due to a backlog. I had to call multiple times to get the status of my claim. When my reimbursement finally did arrive, it was short $150 (they misread my claim and only paid for 2 days instead of 3), necessitating another call from me and a wait for final payment.
I think they're reasonably priced if all you're looking for is a trip cancellation in case you get hit by a bus before your trip and can't go, but otherwise I'd look elsewhere.

Super impressed! I have previously had a bad experience with another trip insurance company, which essentially kept on asking for the same documents and explanations over and over…and over. In the end, I gave up and moved on. So, I was skeptical when I had to file a claim for an injury this time.
What a pleasant surprise! They did ask, once, for a set of additional documents to be submitted (which included some items I had already submitted, like the itemized receipt and the credit card slip), but that was it. After the (re-)submission, the payment was issued within a couple of weeks—without my having to give them a nudge. I find the entire process to be fair enough. I will definitely use Nationwide’s Prime Plan again.

I didn't really think of needing or using this plan until I saw the coast guard helicopter hovering over the ships bow taking a passenger to Puerto Rico to keep her or him alive. Then it hit me as to why my kids keep saying "buy trip insurance". And then again as I saw 5 people boarding the boat in the first port of call... Go a day early AND get the trip protection. Nationwide was a good value!
