Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
I purchased this for peace of mind. I was traveling with someone else and wanted to make sure we had trip coverage in case we got sick and also if there was a long delay or if I were needed back home for a family illness. Nothing happened, it was a safe trip, However I felt better because I had insurance.

I wish I could have gotten coverage for pre-existing conditions even though I could not purchase soon enough after making a deposit on my trip. But I doubt that any insurer would have offered me that coverage as it seems to be a common requirement.

    We appreciate your taking the time to comment on your purchase. In order to have purchased this plan to include coverage for preexisting medical conditions, you would have had to purchase the Essential plan within 10 days of your Initial Trip Payment. Even if you had not made all your travel purchases for the entire trip, you could still have purchased the Essential policy for those travel expenses that you had booked to date. Then, as you booked the additional accommodations, you can call InsureMyTrip to add them to the policy. We would have quoted you the additional premium, if applicable, then asked you to confirm with an email. Always remember that you can call InsureMyTrip in the future for competitive quotes and recommendations.

Didn't need to use the policy, but it made my first trip outside the US much less stressful. Knowing that there was help available, should I need it, was quite comforting.

Policy was easy to purchase and a reasonable price. All info was available for download.
Each time we return from our trip without using the insurance we question purchasing the plan.
Then, we think what could have happened, and are we prepared to chance uncertain health care and the financial loss that we might incur.
